On Wikis, Blogs and Note Taking – Interdependent Thoughts

Metadata

Neil Mather, who has a really intriguing wiki as commonplace book since last fall, mentioned he writes ‘stream first’. — Updated on 2022-09-24 — Group: #Public
Zettelkasten tools and e.g. Tiddlywiki focus on singular thoughts, crumbs of content as building block, and as such fall somewhere in between that stock and flow notion, as blogging is often a river of these crumbs (bookmarks, likes, an image, a quote etc.) — Updated on 2022-09-24 — Group: #Public
Others mentioned that they blogged as a result of working in their wiki, so the flow originated in the stock. This likely fits when blog posts are articles more than short posts. — Updated on 2022-09-24 — Group: #Public
Another participant mentioned she thinks of blogs as having a ‘first published’ date, and wiki items a ‘last edited’ date. This was a useful remark to me, as that last edited date in combination with e.g. tags or topics, provides a good way to figure out where gardening might be in order. — Updated on 2022-09-24 — Group: #Public
