Saved search for tags
Hello fellow zettelnauts, I use the ##tag method from Sasha to signify a root link or parent link attached to a note. When I search for ## I also get all the H2 sections. So I changed all my ##links to @#links, is there a way to have a saved search with a joker like to catch every terms beginning with @# like @#$ or… -
What kinds of notes do you have in your archive?
Not every note in my archive is the same in kind. I did a quick review of the different types of notes I’m currently using: * General “Idea” notes * Bibliographical review/annotation (#ƒ) * Summaries (#ƒ, loc: 0) * Quotes (#ƒ, #cit) * Primary source commentary (#λ) * Bibliography lists (#bib, .taskpaper) * Journal… -
Hack for not losing unassociated notes in your digital Zettelkasten
Here's my newish-user (1 month) hack for when I don't yet know where/how a Zettel connects with other notes (which will someday be created, I'm sure.): In my "Related Notes" section of the card, if I don't have a specific entry, I list this instead: #_ It's my "missing stuff" tag. I use it for absent (or as yet unknown)… -
Re: Hack for not losing unassociated notes in your digital Zettelkasten
Hee! :^) I know. However, sometimes I have an idea that doesn't yet have a connection in my ZK because it's just getting started. The #_ is a bit of a "it doesn't yet exist here yet, but I know it's going to so here's the start" marker. Makes space for novel thoughts joining in. @prometheanhindsight - great idea about… -
Re: Hack for not losing unassociated notes in your digital Zettelkasten
I have this a bit in my ZK, but as I'm using a physical ZK, I just add the card under an "Unsorted" section right at the front of the box. I try and make sure I go back and revisit within a day or two, and either try and associate it with an already existing entry, or actually try to expand on it. I guess its a similar way… -
Re: Hack for not losing unassociated notes in your digital Zettelkasten
My hack is to not create unlinked notes as Luhmann advised.
But the "#_" is nice. It feels close to the issue of something is missing. -
Re: Zettelkasten for scientific research
The plan looks nice, and I wish you godspeed on your learning journey! I second @Will's sentiment about folders. If you absolute, 100% certainly want to separate stuff somehow, consider using tags for this first -- depending on the tool you use and how convenient tags are to navigate and to group notes, you can come up… -
Re: iA Writer as a Zettelkasten Note Archive
This doesn't seem to be the case for me, unfortunately. I use Alfred snippets (my snippet is below), and one of two things happens: 1) If I don't insert the placeholder "_inbox" tag onto the second line of the snippet, Alfred won't automatically write out the filename (which is good), but as soon as I type a single… -
Re: Argdown - Simple syntax for complex argumentation
Oh yes, I think they try to incorporate complex arguments, the creators are a team of philosophers, they started with Argunet, and then move on to Argdown. -
Re: Argdown - Simple syntax for complex argumentation
This looks like a real fun visualization language to use. I'd love to see someone test this in practice. You cannot possibly map all arguments in any branch of philosophy with that, because indentation will get out of hand eventually, but to get an overview, this looks nice! Edit: I take this back, there's other mechanisms…
