How to explain graph note-taking to the uninitiatedĮarlier this year I asked my Twitter followers how they think about networked note-taking and how they explain it to others. No matter what tool you end up using, this video is an excellent introduction to an increasingly important thinking skill. In 45 minutes, Ryan (who worked at Neo4j, a graph database company) explains in a highly visual manner why graph thinking matters in our complex world and how to get started with it. This video by Ryan Boyd helped me a lot to understand networked/graph thinking. But this way of thinking does not click immediately for everybody. That's why so many people are drawn to networked thinking tools like Logseq, Roam, and Obsidian. We tend to not just see things in the world, but also the relationships between those things. Graph thinking is a thinking mode that comes natural to most of us. If you prefer to watch videos, check out the entire onboarding event: If you want to get a better understanding of networked note-taking, outliners, and Logseq in particular, this article is for you. I've just finished the accompanying article to the Logseq onboarding video that I produced earlier this year. How to Get Started With Networked Thinking and Logseq 🕸 How to get started with networked thinking I link to an excellent talk about the concept of graph thinking and republished an atomic essay about the need of linking your notes. If you're not interested in Logseq but are interested in networked/graph thinking, this newsletter will also contain useful resources. Many get started with Logseq by using it as a daily bullet journal, which I believe is the way to go. Instead, use the tool that's best for the job. Don't force yourself to use a single tool for the sake of using a single tool. I don't believe it's either/or, as outliners work best for different use cases. If you're using Obsidian-or any other page-based tool-and are skeptical about working with an outliner, this newsletter is for you. We're also working hard to provide more ways to secure your data, like launching an encrypted sync service. If you're still on the fence about switching to Logseq because of performance issues, rest assured: the team is working hard to polish the user experience. With the amount of educational materials exploding and the number of Logseq plugins surpassing Roam, now is a good time to take a closer look at it. I've seen many Think Stack members switch to Logseq in the past weeks, and increasingly they come from other tools than Roam. Today's newsletter is all about getting better at thinking in networks using our favorite thinking tool: Logseq. Happy Friday, fellow lovers of knowledge!
