I really like it that most of the hacks aren't polished too much; makes it way easier to read for me. Often all those startup tips'n'tricks can be cheesy and distract.
Many notes were useful to me, but this one struck me as I was dealing with it yesterday:
> "Writing everything down. After years and years of assuming that I can rely on my memory, I finally realized I was wrong about that. Even if I can remember something, the task of my brain holding onto that little piece of information is taking time and energy away from whatever task it is that I’m working on in the moment. I’ve cobbled together a handful of products/services to achieve what has become a pretty efficient way to keep track of everything."

I was thinking about creating a website with categories/hashtags/search/calendar (could use something like WP/Drupal) and using it for the same purpose.
Did someone else have the same problem? How did you solve it?
- joeyspn 12y agoEvernote + Trello have been a good solution for me. Now I'm thinking of switching to a FOSS self-hosted solution like https://github.com/Laverna/laverna https://github.com/Laverna/laverna
- bill_bkr 12y agoThanks for suggestion; however Evernote never really felt good for me. I can't say exactly why. Tried it on both - desktop and mobile platforms. Trello is good, but I would need something more robust.
- steveeq1 12y agoDon't know if you use emacs, but I use org-mode on text files with Dropbox. Supports tags, calendaring, searching, etc.
- bill_bkr 12y agoThanks for the suggestion, will check it out.
