Likewise. I've tried and failed to pick up Zettelkasten, mostly because I can't really grok the idea of atomic notes and what they're supposed to look like. I'd love to see someone else's.

- kstrauser 5y agoI've read "Taking Smart Notes", and Zettelkasten seems like an amazing solution for a problem I don't have. It seems to be geared around writing longer works out of notes you collect, and if I were doing that, I think I'd be all-in on Zettelkasten. But I'm not. A wiki-like setup is far more valuable to me. I have a daily note with "Work" and "Personal" sections. As I go through the day, I add entries in those sections: - Worked on the [[Foo project]] with [[Joe]] - Called [[Mom]] and asked her about the [[Meatloaf recipe]] - Helped [[Jane]] with the [[Qux problem]] This morning it's very easy to see what I was doing yesterday, and have the context for all the mischief I was up to. Also, when I open "Foo project" and look at its backlinks, I get a timeline of when I'd worked on it, and can see what other things I was working on at the same time. Being able to instantly recreate that context is incredibly valuable, and it's very lightweight for me. I'm not going out of my way to associate "Foo project" with "Joe", but still end up with a graph view that has a lot of notes linking to both of those notes.
