I use wikis to manage my knowledge. It has many parts with links, backlinks, and references. I write down my project plans, notes from books that I read, knowledge about ongoing projects, todos.
It has a homepage, several sections, pages, and folders.
It is not much of an upkeep as you might think. My wiki grows organically.
When there is an ongoing event, it gets it own page and the title finds its place on the Homepage.
I use my wiki as a "second brain". It contains all sorts of non-private, personal information.
It has had many benefits in my life- some of them measurable. I still am an avid wiki maintainer and plan to remain so.
I first tried Zettelkasten. But it did not stick. My notes were too long.
My wikis are maintained in Obsidian and three-way synced with a cloud server and my laptop.
Will highly recommend.
I read about Zettelkasten, read a few pages of Getting Things Done by David Allen, and the book Pragmatic Thinking and Learning by Andy Hunt. There was a chapter on wikis.
Right now, I do reviews manually. But I intend to make it automatic by implementing Spaced Repeatation.
Right now, I am looking into that.
