Totally! I made tap and I still use org-mode for a lot of stuff! I think we all think slightly different things when we hear "notes" It is both an artifact and also a system for capturing the artifacts. the artifact is often, but not always, just some boring text -- but the way it is captured and used can be really interesting and as varied as the artifacts themselves. _so. many. possibilities._!
- tsuujin 5y agoI’m an avid org-mode user, all of my work happens there. Can you give me the elevator pitch for why I would pay for tap over my existing org-mode + captures + agenda?
- joe8756438 5y agoNot really. But _some_ part of my motivation to build tap was the difficulty convincing anybody to use emacs. Here are a couple points anyway: - I love getting email summaries of different note categories. I email myself a list of all my programming related reading saturday morning, it's great. - Entering a quick note via sms is hard to beat, especially because /tap sends me text messages every day and so it's always pretty high up on the recent messages list edit: formatting
- User23 5y agoI think there is probably some opportunity for an Emacs distribution that is specifically targeted at these potential users. However, not as a way to try to get them to join the Church of Emacs[1]. Emacs would be no more than an implementation detail for a great note taking app. I imagine something along the lines Nicolas Rougier's notebook-mode[2], but without the focus on literate programming. Just nice formatting, quality variable pitch fonts, and familiar keybinds. Maybe some kind of slick configuration of artist-mode too. [1] Of which I am a proud member, btw.
