Tom Critchlow (tomcritchlow.com)Some other interesting wikis
Credit for inspiration for this whole project comes from a variety of wikis and wiki-like collections on the web:
buster.wiki/ - Strong design and everything has a date by the looks of it which enables an RSS feed. Very polished and thought through.
are.na - A platform that all the cool kids use for building personal knowledge libraries. Lightly social, perhaps the right answer but slightly questionable if they’ll be around for a long time. Ymmv.
Brendan’s /canon - this was part of the original inspiration for me. A curated list of pure stock - things that Brendan returns to again and again. He has a template you can copy too.
Worrydream’s quotes page - just a massive list of interesting quotes collected by Brett Victor. Notice how being one giant page makes it instantly searchable.
daywreckers.com - from Ben Pieratt, not quite a wiki but a very minimal site designed to collect the dots. A daily visit from me.
derek sivers’ daily journal - a post from Derek Sivers on how to keep a text-file long-term store for your ideas and notes.
And there’s lots more too - this twitter thread has a whole bunch of interesting rabbit holes.
And, you can of course find this list of wikis on my wiki :) ❧
As I’m thinking about it I also have to think about not only my own blog cum commonplace book, but I do also keep a private digital set of structures in OneNote (primarily) as well as some data Evernote which serve a lot of the same functionality.
