Part of Exploring Andy’s notes MOC
- Daily scratch/log notes
- Prompts and incomplete notes in the writing inbox
- Evergreen notes
- Stubs for backlinks
- Simple definition notes
- Precise, narrow notes; can be framed as questions
- Higher level notes i.e. notes that abstract over groups of others or personally defined terms
- Outline notes: pull together many related evergreen notes under one roof and more or less represent an outline of a topic
Note types outside the taxonomy: - Literature notes: titled after a source, meant mainly as a link to other durable notes and a backlink target. Andy calls these “outline notes but for someone else’s ideas” * I’ve seen both loose outlines of other sources, as well as more in-depth and descriptive notes about sources in Andy’s system. These notes don’t have to be super light. - Log notes: observations about a specific system or project over time. I tend to take this in my daily notes, and can view them as backlinks.
