  1. 1. Fleeting notes are your friend! Capture everything that resonates, then filter later. #Zettelkasten #FleetingNotes

  2. In honor of S. D. Goitein, I have a drawer in my Macey Co. filing cabinet labeled “Genizah” where I put all of my “worn out” notes. They get transferred weekly into the circular file.

  6. It seems so on brand for a book about writing using a zettelkasten, that the author would leave a lovely little example of a fleeting note on a slip (1 3/8 x 2 1/2″) inside the front cover of the book!

  8. @jontromans My concern with the moving of the jobs is the loss of institutional knowledge. The people being fired were familiar with the codebase. The new people will have to be brought up to speed. That, combined with the fact that sharing to Evernote on Android has been broken for weeks has caused me to jump ship to #Obsidian + #FleetingNotes

  9. @mani2jeff @talios @EpiphanicSynchronicity I'm in the process of investigating #fleetingnotes this week. Might do the trick! I'll report back.

  10. I used to have this elaborate system of tagging #FleetingNotes and #EvergreenNotes and #LiteratureNotes ...

    Now, I just have notes (my words, with a link back to what inspired them as appropriate) and quotes (someone else's words, formatted and attributed clearly).

    The only other level I need, at present, is what I'm calling "arguments." #Dramatica theory claims every work of art is an argument; I'm seeing every hypothesis as an argument with ideas that reinforce or subvert it.

  11. Anyone using #FleetingNotes with #ObsidianMD? What are your use cases? Best practices? Worth the effort?

  12. Terms of art that mean little to the new and uninitiated are a real problem in this time while new tools supporting personal knowledge management are blooming.

    Please kill the jargon kids. #pkm #TfT inre #fleetingnotes #literaturenotes #evergreennotes #MOC and so many more

  13. Who else keeps a waste book

    I carry around a small notebook (usually a 48 page Field Notes) for short fleeting notes. Later I copy them into my commonplace book/zettelkasten/digital garden and expand upon them. 

    Waste books were used in the tradition of the commonplace book. A well known example is Isaac Newton’s Waste Book (MS Add. 4004) in which he did much of the development of the calculus. Another example is that of Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, who called his waste books sudelbücher, and which were known to have influenced Leo Tolstoy, Albert Einstein, Andre Breton, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Ludwig Wittgenstein.
