Neutral evil: printing out a spreadsheet that takes two pages, but printing it double-sided.

Can you help me with an information storage and retrieval problem?

I have more than 2000 YouTube videos saved in 65 playlists. I would like to search for particular videos, but YouTube does not make it easy.

So I thought about doing something like this:

1) Create a document that would list every saved video with its URL.

2) Create a preliminary list of descriptive tags for the videos.

3) Begin the task of tagging each entry on the video listing in the document , adding new tags when necessary.

4) Find an application that would allow me to search the document using Boolean operators and parentheses.

Although Step 3 will be time consuming, I understand what I would be doing there.

However, I'm very unsure of myself with regard to step 4. A librarian suggested that I use Evernote, while an online search came up with a spreadsheet as the appropriate application for my purposes.

I have never used Evernote ( I don't even know what it is!), and am not familiar with spreadsheet operation, being more of a pencil and paper gradebook bloke.

I am not a tech person, have only a limited knowledge of information storage and retrieval, and would prefer not to use Microsoft or Google applications on my Linux desktop. I would also prefer not to have to buy anything.

Does anybody have any suggestions for step 4?

In addition, please don't hesitate to tell me if I am thinking about my YouTube searching problem in the wrong way and that I need to adopt a wholly different approach to solving it.

VisiCalc, the first #spreadsheet, was the first program that every business not only needed, but instantly knew that it needed! I recall businesspeople in computer stores saying, “I want a #VisiCalc.”

The clerks explained that VisiCalc was a program, and you needed an Apple to run it on. (Bricklin and Frankston wrote VisiCalc on an #Apple because that’s what they happened to have.) “Yeah, yeah, fine, whatever it takes, but I gotta have a VisiCalc.” (j p)

#neoleo : your #spreadsheet can't do this!

neoleo is a terminal spreadsheet for Linux. It is based on GNU oleo, but has been significantly changed since then.

I have been experimenting with trying to make a spreadsheet that adheres to the Unix philosophy. In this video I show you how neoleo can be used as process viewer. Let's see Excel or LibreOffice do that!

🪨🛠️ New Post: "VisiCalc on the Apple 2"

Happy #SpreadsheetDay! This time I look at #visicalc, the first spreadsheet. Though I have a good deal of personal experience with it, I've never looked at it with a critical eye. How much of its DNA still exists in the software of today? I try to answer that by calculating protein levels of ration formulation for swine, as one does. Special guest appearance by your favorite grain: sorghum!

VisiCalc on the Apple II

In 1978, Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston took out a loan to fund development of "Calcu-ledger," the very tool that could project if taking out a loan were fiscally prudent. In 2025, VisiCalc still has the necessary precision to express the hundreds of billions in spreadsheet profits generated since.
