Thanks! That's a fun problem to have. I think go with whatever feels easiest to you.
This means so much coming from you!! Thank you kindly! I really look up to you. You were one of the first few websites I found here, and I feel at home reading your essays.
If nothing else, this got me to pick up an old messy draft and get it good enough to post. I've been wanting to get back into blogging but keep starting never finishing. So thanks for the poke.
I felt a bit off about posting such a meta piece, but now I'm glad I did :-)
Fun read! A more intentional take on something I've done for years: when I have a lot of stuff to do or need to take notes very quickly, I will forsake any actual note system I have to open up notepad and just start typing. There really isn't anything else with so little friction. I have lost information from forgetting to save, so I've started trying to copy things to named .md files in obsidian ASAP, though.
Thanks KPH. Yeah, for me it was just about combining that kind of immediacy with some of the benefits that come with PKM. I'm sure the more complex systems work wonders for many, but they didn't do much for me.
This was a great read and I'm going to research how to add tags to my text file. I've tried before without adding tags before and search was difficult. I would love to find an example online to help.
@getoffmylawn you can just write the tags in using your own nomenclature or system. I use something like [STORY IDEA] as a tag and then i can just ctrl+f for that and find those tags. You can do this for dates, keywords, tags, anything. The search function is extremely powerful, most folks just underutilize it
Thanks, @getoffmylawn. I might do a follow-up with some examples since there seems to be a surprising amount of interest. But essentially, I just use the '@' sign as a "tag". Some people use colons, caps, hastags, brackets etc.
Great post! And I completely agree, I created my website with the exact same idea in mind.

"abandoned freewebs websites" - always fun to come across a fellow former freewebs user :-)
Oh, good, I'm so glad you also remember freewebs fondly. I know the whole thing on here is geocities nostalgia, but freewebs was the first silly little home on the web for me and a lot of my friends! haha
Yeah, I have some fond memories building freeweb sites with school friends. As you say, Geocities gets all the love but freewebs seems to have been mostly forgotten.
