Notes
Should we view it as a coincidence or not that the information management carrier of the early 20th century is the same size and scale as the carrier at the opening of the 21st century?
The humble index card and the cellular phone have more in common than we might expect.
Reframing and simplifying the idea of how to keep a Zettelkasten
If you’ve been following this idea here, it’s time to update your feed.
I’m thinking it may be an interesting experiment, particularly using it in combination with the Webmention plugin to get replies/responses for crosslinking with others’ ideas on the web. This could allow one not only to communicate with other their own slip box, but slip boxes to communicate with each other.

For quite a while I regularly see Donald McKenzie pop up in the “likes” on my website. Usually WordPress notifications for this sort of activity encourage you to visit the sites of those who do this and they have a link to some sort of identity or blog of the person who left the like. But alas, I suspect Donald only has a reader account and doesn’t blog themself.
This makes me wonder, who is Donald McKenzie?! If you’re reading this, do take a moment to say hello in the comments. And thanks for being such a loyal reader all these years! 😍
