Thank you @maggied @roamhack for hosting the "Future of Tools for Thoughts" space. We covered -
1. Key elements for TfT (Tools for Thoughts) 2. Specific use case: task and project management 3. Interoperability 4. Trust 5. Future looking
1. What are the key elements for a TfT to be "good"?
- Capture and storage
- Frictionless
- Speed
- Search-ability
Note: there is no ONE right answer, it will be different depending on the problem you are trying to solve.
2. How do we layering time and action to resurface ideas?
- Touched on task management, spaced-repetition
- Discussed a particular usage of TfT being task management and compared tools such as Roam Research, Obsidian and nerded out on a few GTD plug-ins to play with :-)
3. How do we support a community around the tools?
- Interoperability to interact with other auxiliary tools around the main tools for thoughts
- Users want a direction that they can excited to build towards
4. How do we build trust around the tools?
- Security and privacy is top of mind for many
- As a user, it is helpful to know the boundary on security so the users can make intelligent decisions
5. Future looking -
- What is the future for AI vs machine-assisted thinking?
- How can we layer different mediums, e.g. image, to provide more dimensions for knowledge exploration? @RobertHaisfield (feel free to add if I over-simplified this)
All in all, great party! Feeling smarter through osmosis.
@roamhacker re-tagging you because I misspell your handle, I am in a rush to head out to grab a burger on a beautiful sunny Sunday. My bad. 🍔🧋☀️
