I don't read much on the interent without taking notes on it. I have contexts of knowledge groupings that I maintain over time. NV makes is really quick (cmd-m) brings the window to focus, and I start typing to search for existing files, or I (cmd-l) and create a new file.
I was an evernote user, but i like the plain text storage, the DropBox syncing, and the abity to access my files from my phone/iPad. I use FlickNote on my Android phone to reference the documents.
Some of my favorite things I store:
1) Business words/term I'm not familiar with
2) Marketing/industry buzzwords
3) I have files on different technologies where I link to different articles, short summaries of things I've learned in articles, etc...
In short, I use it almost like a custom/manual index of my internet.
Edit: I use nvALT, btw. Just realized my comment might be out of context of this.
- taude 13y agoOne other tip that I use all the time: I have cmd-shift-e bound to open MOU markdown editor for those notes that will eventually need formatting (things like documentation, blog posts, etc.)
