Spent some time with Maggie Appleton's "digital garden" this morning. It's a lovely combination of beautiful design & thought provoking writing

The idea of a digital garden as a living entity—comprised of imperfect, work in progress thoughts, interconnected for cross-pollination instead of SEO—is one of my favorite concepts in a long time.

She also highlights the concept of Daily Notes Pages as a contributing mechanism for Personal Knowledge Management (#PKM).

This resonated w/ me because I use a "daily doc" concept to explicitly enable rapid note-taking.

In my case, it is not for PKM. Rather, it lets me capture notes, primarily, sorted by time, aggregated by intentionally searchable headings or project titles.

I had not thought of it as a particularly unique idea, but it is very effective for me. I might write a breakdown of what my document is / how I use it.

@manikrathee what tool are you using? Obsidian like most, LogSeq for the OSS groupies, or something else?
@da5is the daily doc I mentioned is a single google doc. I am using Obsidian, DayOne and Srivener for various personal writing projects.
@manikrathee interesting, I have a similar concept with a single long One Note page with dates as headings
Disregard the white Readwise bar at the top of the screenshot. It is an artifact of my browser.
