That wasn't necessarily my point. I cannot visiualise how you use self-contained notes for something like book notes or meeting notes, browsing random links just seems completely inefficient and not transporting the actual meaning/context of the notes
- henrikeh 6y agoYou are not browsing the notes at “random”. You read your notes because you are working on something and what to see how your collection of notes might help you. It takes effort to support this workflow. Notes have to be self-contained and of a somewhat permanent relevance. You don’t put raw reading and meeting notes there.
- bosie 6y agoThanks, that helped. Very different from my current workflow indeed.
- kd5bjo 6y agoThe primary change of thinking that a Zettelkasten system requires is giving up the idea of keeping notes about a book or meeting. Instead, keep notes about topics you care about, using the book or meeting as a source.
