Ivan Illich described it in 1971, so I’m wondering where the Tinder for Personal Learning Networks is? Maybe hyperlink.academy could help us with this?
Notes
Short content: a microblog of status updates or short notes
Using the QuickAdd plugin for Obsidian makes it almost stupidly easy to add notes to my journal and to do’s to my list. How have I not set this up before now?!
Happy International Fountain Pen Day! 🖋✒
I’m surprised that with the efflorescence of note taking software in the past couple of years that none of it has been documented on Wikipedia.

A lot of this metaverse business sounds like what Ramon Llull was creating in the 13th century with his art of memory and combinatoric wheels. Admittedly, it was a single user space, but he was creating images in his mind and then combinatorically combining them with each other to create new external/imagined ideas, thoughts, and experiences.
It gets (a lot) complicated to see this without significant background reading and experience of what he was doing. (I think even Frances Yates misunderstood some of his intention in her magisterial tome.)
IndieWeb is doing some of what he imagined, but rather than doing it in our physical brains (memory), we’re doing together from website to website in a similar communal manner.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, German writer Michael Ende (The Neverending Story, Momo) kept a zettelkasten and published a book with some of its output. Why isn’t this better known? Anyone have additional details in English?
Every Monday, I sit down with a cup of coffee and learn something interesting about history through old manuscripts. Join our friends Dot Porter (@leoba) and the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (@sims_mss) at Coffee with a Codex.
I’m curious if anyone has created lists of graduate programs in education that are actively teaching/researching pedagogy described in @CathyNDavidson‘s #TheNewEducation? I’m considering tying some of my interests into a potential new career path.
What local individual or local community blogs should I be following in the Pasadena, Glendale, Altadena areas in SoCal?
My Hobonichi order has finally arrived from Japan!

I guested on a recording for Andy Sylvester‘s new Thinking About Tools for Thought podcast earlier today. Hopefully I’ve lived up to the promise of the fascinating space that he’s been crafting there.
