20170427: Donald Noyes: elaboration -- Some of us have ideas which are hints of ideas, or ideas which we have not fully explored or elaborated upon that we want to file away in a place where we can later modify.
I call such ideas Notions.
This way I can file away incompleted ideas for later elaboration or development. It is miniature Thinking Out Loud, except usually not broadcast to a wider audience than an audience of one.
I have exposed this Notion of using Notions with the intent of exposing a potential tool for others to use as well.
I have found SFW a good venue for such exploration into originating thought expressions.
