@holgerfrohloff hm, sorry about that! Were you able to find what you bookmarked? I appreciate the heads up.

@aa Thank you Aaron. Yes I found everything. BTW are you still heavily using Drafts.app? I migrated to Obsidian.

@holgerfrohloff I am not - I (thankfully) do not need to track my work at that level anymore. I’ve looked at obsidian, it looks very interesting! How are you using it?

@aa that is a good question, potentially opening a can of worms 😂 I use it as

• a journal with daily entries
• logging entries that are on my mind with timestamps. just to clear my mind
• for weekly, monthly, yearly reviews
• for tracking projects and todos w/o projects
• as a bucket for all writing that I do
• for tracking client work (async daily stand-up posts and sprint reports)
• as a movie and book database, e.g. syncing with readwise
• some more use cases I don't think of right now

@holgerfrohloff @aa one use case not on that list; I use it to link contact information with complicated meeting notes (e.g. I meet with accountant, I link the note with accountant's contact info, to a note about whatever we discussed at the meeting). One other use case: I also love it for various checklists, which you can store as templates.

@annahavron @aa you are totally right! I migrated my CRM to Obsidian as well, creating notes for every contact.

@holgerfrohloff yeah, it's been super useful for that! I take meeting notes on paper, but then type up stuff into Obsidian, if I'm pretty sure I'll need to refer to it later.

@annahavron I do use a Remarkable2 tablet for hand-written notes. Since those can be automatically be transformed into typed notes, I bet there is a way to get those into Obsidian. Oh, the possibilities…

@holgerfrohloff Super tempted by having a tablet that could take handwritten notes; super aware that I already own devices I'm not using...! Possibilities, indeed.

@holgerfrohloff nice I need to get into obsidian more, your list is inspiring. my main issue is I like to take written notes for meetings and events in OneNote and I need to sort out readwise

@adamprocter what makes OneNote “better” for you?

@annahavron Remarkable is very expensive but still one of the best tech things I own. I use my iPad way less since I have it. And it's soo light. And lasts for weeks with one charge. And the new v3 they just published makes it even better.

@holgerfrohloff just the hand written / sketchnotes element I can deploy on my iPad - also its rally good for quickly scribbling / annotating over PDFs

@adamprocter I see. Back when I used the iPad for handwritten notes I had the app notability. Do you use some screen mat or protection or write on the glass?

@holgerfrohloff I use it as is. Never bothered me but I might buy remarkable for my daughter as she has just gotten into use my older big iPad for her college classes and thinks that might be nicer
