I was recently introduced to the Zettlekasten method of note taking， and the Obsidian app for note keeping。 Every source that I looked at pointed to this book as the origin of their thinking。 Perhaps it is because I gleaned so much of what is in this book from reading， and listening， to what others had gotten out of it， I didn't see anything original here。 However， if you haven't spent time looking at other sources， this is certainly a great place to start。 I was disappointed that the author doe I was recently introduced to the Zettlekasten method of note taking， and the Obsidian app for note keeping。 Every source that I looked at pointed to this book as the origin of their thinking。 Perhaps it is because I gleaned so much of what is in this book from reading， and listening， to what others had gotten out of it， I didn't see anything original here。 However， if you haven't spent time looking at other sources， this is certainly a great place to start。 I was disappointed that the author doesn't give enough examples of the different types of notes。 Perhaps in a later addition the author will remedy this。 I hope so， for the sake of future readers。Yet， the most disappointing part of learning about this system， is that I didn't start doing this decades ago。 I cannot begin to fathom what I have lost from not creating a system like this as I read all of those thousands of books over my lifetime。 Do yourself a favor， and start now。 。。。more

I want to be shady about this book， but the truth is for as much as I thought a lot of it was basic AF， it really did reshape the way I approach taking notes。 I'll explain briefly: I'm the kind of academic who jots ideas， musings， etc。 down in a notebook or in Evernote。 Most of my handwritten notes and many notes that are taken in Evernote are just sitting there and I'll never look at them again。 In other words， they're archived。 Archives are great， but the Zettelkasten works more like how your I want to be shady about this book， but the truth is for as much as I thought a lot of it was basic AF， it really did reshape the way I approach taking notes。 I'll explain briefly: I'm the kind of academic who jots ideas， musings， etc。 down in a notebook or in Evernote。 Most of my handwritten notes and many notes that are taken in Evernote are just sitting there and I'll never look at them again。 In other words， they're archived。 Archives are great， but the Zettelkasten works more like how your brain works。 I'll leave it at that so as not to spoil the read， but my approach before reading this meant that unless I plan on looking through all my notebooks， I've probably lost some of my best ideas which I'd scribbled down somewhere， never to be seen again。 The Zettelkasten approach treats those ideas as potential veins you can tap for more insight。 。。。more
