Just throwing a little love to bear while the note taking wave takes place
I love trying writing apps and to do apps more that actually getting work done. Been bouncing around a bit with Craft and NotePlan and others....

The most challenging section for me this year was the Safari one.
In the end, I *really* like what Apple has done on the iPhone. However, I consider the iPad UI a regression from iPadOS 14.
And then we have Extensions.

How I Use Obsidian at Work
Note-taking and personal knowledge management get talked about in academic circles, by both students and teachers. But there’s not much said about its use outside of the academe.
I’ll admit, due to my job description, I may be in a better position than most to take advantage of note-taking in a professional context. My background is in software performance testing. My job for several years has been to make sure that applications are prepared to withstand traffic from many users accessing it, usually by writing code to simulate that traffic before it’s released to real users.

In the past few years, after a summer of running and testing beta software, I often find it difficult to sit down and think about what is new. Don’t get me wrong: it’s not because there isn’t anything, but rather that it’s become second nature to the way I’m working with my systems. This is … Continue reading Drafts 28 →

My Obsidian Setup, Part 1: Sync, Core Plugins, Workspaces, and Other Settings
Last month, after a long beta period I’ve participated in for the past few months, the official Obsidian app for iPhone and iPad launched on the App Store. I’ve covered Obsidian and my approach to writing my annual iOS review in it on both AppStories and Connected; because I’m busy with that massive project and

In today's issue of @ClubMacStories Weekly, I wrote about my 'Dashboard' setup in @obsdmd – an inbox for my thoughts I've been using for the past several months.

Once you get past the basics that @viticci covered in the first two installments of his Obsidian series for @ClubMacStories members, you can create some very cool setups like Federico’s Dashboard note. https://t.co/vQ8XcXxxd6
