Dad & Husband first. Writes about living intentionally. Free Roam Course/Letters from a Roaman/Zettelkasten 👉

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

Well, my Roam course is officially live. If I've done it right, when you sign up now you'll get the first lesson straight away. 🤞https://t.co/kKggASQFJU New Roam users, it could form the perfect complement to your 14 day trial 😃 #roamcult

@kvistgaard @TfTHacker @JoelChan86 @calhistorian @DharamKapila @rroudt I don’t use social media much these days, but I do miss that period - it was a lot of fun and triggered a lot of creativity

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

Good things come to those who wait

Fabulous thread on the theory of #roamcult and @RoamResearch

[Kahlil Corazo 🧭 Explorations.ph @kcorazo]

I have a threadapalooza idea

I'll riff on this song "Take Me To Church" to talk about a theory I have of how #roamcult 2020 happened

@brunowinck @cortexfutura @olivered Thanks Bruno. I don't have a short answer on security for teams - it's very much an "it depends" question

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

@dthTMW I took an accidental and then intentional break to decide how I might continue around my Letters.

I've never done any official Roam updates, I only look after @RoamBookClub newsletters, which was done via a Roam email

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

@tracyplaces I'm so sorry Tracy. Treasure the memories and take care ❤️

This is my third year of Jólabókaflóðið - Christmas Book Flood, which is the Icelandic tradition of gifting books on Christmas Eve.

It's my new favourite family tradition, and this year I've gone big!

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

I've just finished wrapping for my new favourite tradition of the holidays–Jólabókaflóðið

Jolabokaflod, roughly translates as Christmas Book Flood and is an Icelandic Christmas eve tradition.

If you love books, it's a great way to encourage your family to read books too

Here is your chance to get in!

DM me, and you can get an invite to PKM Collective right away. Free for one month until 2022/12/31.

I'm removing the vetting process as recommended by @tomrossmedia yesterday.

Vendors: The "no promotion" in the rules of conduct still hold.

[Bruno Winck @brunowinck]

I'm starting a threat on the key patterns shared today by several modern PKM/Tft/note-taking apps.

I don't mean all apps have them, but it's a good pov to see what progresses have been made in the last 2 years.

Feel free to contribute ...

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

Letter 53 will ship a little late this week, which means you have extra time to get signed up

I’ll be sharing a follow up essay on the 5 fundamentals of @RoamResearch which is broadly applicable to @logseq too, breaking it down with a real example

https://t.co/9qbAhUMeBf

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

There's only 5 fundamentals you need to learn Roam effectively (in this order):

1. Get used to writing on the Daily Notes pages

2. Get used to atomic thinking in blocks - one thought per block

3. Indentation

4. Page References/Tags

5. Block References

[Bruno Winck @brunowinck]

A few tweets from the top of my head, based on my experience in ontologies and semantic web for the last 10 years for the PKM enthusiasts

@TfTHacker @tana Ah thanks Chris; I missed that page initially. Easy in one sense but not practical for just some quick sharing of a few nodes with another random user

But looks like there is easier sharing and publishing on the roadmap

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]

How easy is it to share these nodes with other Tana users? I’d be interested in reading those sources too

[Andy Hens𐃏n @elaptics]
