Great writeup!
I’ve thought about this too – I started to think of my wiki as a textual memory palace in some way. For helping to path it out/memorize it I thought it would be fun to have kind of text adventure paths through it. I kind of did that (along with a little sketch) on the homepage. (mentioned briefly in here under the Personal textbooks? section https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/wikis)
I also wondered if wikis then became collaborative in some way, they could become collaborative memory palaces. https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/20200308210932-collaborative_memory_palaces
All quite half-baked ideas at the moment but something I really like the idea of.
I think starting as frictionlessly as possible is a really good idea. Something where you can just easily type plain text and link those thoughts together – that’s the best place to start. For me that meant org-mode because I use it regularly anyway.
It’s evolving now with org-roam in the mix, in a direction I’m really happy with, but I think if I’d started trying to get everything in one I might have fizzled out. (That happened when I tried org-brain before – it was just too much friction).
I have some notes on my progression of wiki tooling here: https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/20200317105640-wiki_tooling
Aw yeah, that sounds like a good combo. Cueing up season 1 for next on my watchlist.
Words first, I like the motto! I’ve been doing my personal wiki as plain text only, pure brain dump, and really enjoying it that way. I also like the idea of being able to wget a site. The wiki I’ve got all the content in a git repo too – I like the idea of someone being able to clone it, or at least cherry pick bits they want.
I like MusicBrainz (https://musicbrainz.org/) for this.
Happy birthday! ?
Dude just turn off ur security, everything works fine then.
Happy New Year Calum! That’s a good review. Focusing on friends, family and health is a good antidote to the B-word for now.
Excited to hear there’s a IWC London in the works!
