I have a conjecture that some people organize their memories by place.
They have no trouble at all remembering where in a menu structure
something is. These folk are right at home in the deeply nested menus
of the modern browser or IDE.


Other people remember by association. They associate words, sounds,
images with things. They would prefer to find them by giving these
associations. (These folk love google and use it even to find frequent
URLS) They also tend to prefer the Unix commandline interface where
everything is immediately accessible just by remembering its name.


I wonder how much longer till someone invents a UI that customizes
itself to the user's style.
