We compared knowledge management software side by side: XWiki, Confluence, Notion, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and MediaWiki.
Yes, we put ourselves in the lineup. No, we did not rig it. The comparison covers pricing, hosting options, and openness, including where the others beat us.

For a long time, I believed a 'second brain' meant capturing every single thought I ever had. My archive became a graveyard of half-finished ideas. The turning point was realizing that a lean system is a trustworthy system. I started auditing my notes and deleting the noise. Now, I spend significantly less time organizing and more time actually thinking.

When synthesizing dozens of sources, stop organizing them by the date you read them. Instead, group your sources spatially by theme. Create dedicated zones for foundational works, key debates, and methodological approaches. Physically clustering opposing positions allows you to see the gaps in the literature where your own original ideas can fit.

You’ve got great ideas.πŸ’‘

Getting them from brain to page? That's the hard part.
The best documentation rarely comes from one person staring at a blank page.

When you hit an inspiration brick wall, it’s time to tag in a teammate.

'Knowledge is freedom, ignorance is slavery.' - Ryan Holiday

When I added this quote to my Zettelkasten, I wrote underneath: 'To ensure I remain free I need to keep learning about the world around me while accepting that I will remain ignorant of many things.'

That feels like a life mission statement to me.

What Is Knowledge? Types, Assets, and the AI Problem - The Computer & Technology Network

What is knowledge, really? I explore tacit, explicit, and specific knowledge, how to build a Zettelkasten knowledge base, and why this matters in the AI age.

What is the one piece of information you're always struggling to find in your digital notes, even though you know you saved it somewhere?

Tech Thursday brings Pro Marcos in the spotlight.

They allow teams reuse content, highlight important information, display dynamic content, and keep documentation easier to update over time.
The session is short, practical, and focused on what you can actually do inside XWiki.
Last chance to register, or share it with someone who manages documentation in XWiki and might find it useful.

Here's something I've been sitting with: to get the most from AI, you need knowledge and strong cognitive ability. But extended AI use can erode both of those things.

It's a genuine paradox. I've set up red lines in my AI use to protect my thinking - but I'm curious how others approach this.

How are you protecting your cognitive abilities while still using AI? More on my approach: https://www.ctnet.co.uk/what-is-knowledge/
