Tools for thought ≠ just apps.

PKM isn’t new—and it isn’t just digital. From notebooks to mind maps, analog tools still play a powerful role in how we think, write, and learn.

Don’t let shiny new toys and apps distract from solid thinking and meaning making.

Note LabFrom (Commonplace) Notebooks to Notetaking Apps: Why Tools for Thought Aren’t Just DigitalIn the age of digitalisation, the digital transformation or the digital state (Stalder, 2018), it is easy to assume that effective and contemporary thinking tools for (personal) knowledge management must be digital, too. However, history and practice show that analog tools—such as commonplace books, index cards, and notebooks—have long played a crucial role in structuring and enhancing knowledge work. This post challenges the myth that only digital tools qualify as tools for thought.

Trying to decide: Obsidian.md or Logseq — which one is the ultimate tool for knowledge management and note-taking?

Both have their strengths, but I’m curious:
Which do you use and why?
Pros, cons, hidden features — let’s discuss!

I wrote recently about #AI for IA (intelligence augmentation) and it looks like Stanford is paying attention. ;-)

"We encourage the university to view goals in this space in line with the philosophy of Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) to make sure that the use of AI is centered on improving the human condition. Thus, we prefer to focus on “augmenting human capabilities” versus “replacing humans.”"

I thought Brexit was a pretty dunderheaded self-own, but what's going on in the US is just orders of magnitude more stupid.

I've always thought that computers (#PersonalComputing, #ToolsForThought) should enable us to think better, to cooperate better, to communicate better. Instead the evidence seems to be that networking them together was a Bad Idea and has made us collectively more stupid than ever in human history. Or perhaps we were always that stupid, only now we have a light on it.
