How I note down my insights in the fastest and most frictionless way when taking walks, doing online research or having an epiphany with @otter_ai, @RoamResearch and @worldbrain

πŸ‘‡πŸΌ
Using @otter_ai's speech-to-text I can go on reflection walks and just talk out what comes up, without being interrupted to write notes.

When doing my [[Weekly Review]] I can skim through and easily extract the most important bits in text form.

Using @RoamResearch I can just jot down any thoughts I have in an unstructured way.

If I want to make sure to review them again in my [[Weekly Review]] I just add them as a {{[[TODO]]}}.

Then in the Weekly Review I query for all unresolved TODOs

With @worldbrain I can take notes or annotate websites/youtube videos/tweets without leaving the page.


Using the @readwise integration all notes land automatically in Roam, where I can go through important ones in my Weekly Review.
After taking @anthilemoon's "From Collector to Creator" course, I now use actionable tags (#toRead, #toDo) everywhere.

Experimenting using the #FleetingNotes tag after watching @beauhaan's Zettelkasten demo with @RobertHaisfield

I just figured out how you can do co-watching sessions of ANY video online, and you speak to each other too.

The other person doesn't even need any additional account to your fav streaming service

Step 1: Setup a zoom call with screensharing. Make sure to tick "Optimize Screen Share for Video Clips"
Get a tool like Loopback rogueamoeba.com/loopback/

Route your browser and mic sound to one channel and only your browser sound on a separate channel as your monitor. Select your headphones (in my case "Dixie Dewdrop") as the monitor device.

In tech there's a lot of buzz around decentralisation and privacy.

I think both are the wrong product values to OPTIMISE for, even though we're building decentralised & privacy respecting products with @worldbrain

Instead: It's interoperability/openness. [THREAD]
Don't get me wrong. Both decentralisation and privacy are important values. But building products with such a prime focus will hinder market adoption and thus the potential impact of your products. Just think about one blockchain product you ACTUALLY use in your daily life? 2/10
Problem: The frictions of using decentralised and privacy focused products. You're fucked when you lose your encryption keys or device. Decentralisation has privacy challenges too. People want convenience and security. They want someone responsible for their data being safe. 3/10

It's been 5 years since I started researching online misinformation and building practical solutions. Here are things I learned about one of the most complex and fundamental problems of humanity: Making sense of the world around us. [1/13]
Misinformation is not just about false information, but information overload. The more information people need to process daily, the higher the chances are that misinformation can affect them. Reducing this overload is as important as providing correct information. [2/13]
Business was always about trading scarcity. For current ad-based online services it's our attention. So what's next? Scarcity of quality information. Whoever manages to build a scalable business model that rewards quality information will crack the misinformation problem. [3/13]
