      So, how do you make a system like this work today? Step 1: Write down ideas in your own words When you read something interesting, it is easy to think you understand it. Even easier to trick yourself when you re-read it Writing it in your own words strips you of this delusion

      Step 2: Place your notes somewhere where you can easily link them together, reorganize them into new contexts, and build out chains of thought. Evernote is terrible for this. (see related thread) Twitter is surprisingly good.https://twitter.com/Conaw/status/1099181050045952006 …

      Hmm this is making me want to have another twitter acct that I can use for threading ideas/thoughts like this, private so I don't have to... - explain unfamiliar concepts or shorthand - track how they're all going to land for others - provide context for other people - etc

      It's occurring to me that except for concerns about saying things that land awkwardly (which is minor issue compared to context) it could actually work to have a public @​Malcolm_Scratchpad account or w/e, and then I can use tweets from there in this acct's threads organically!

      It would probably end up attracting followers anyway, but presumably fewer and they'd know what they were in for. And those followers' replies might help me develop my thoughts. Hmm... 🤔

      (Relatedly, I've also found myself wanting to tweet entire blog posts so I can quote-tweet sentences from them etc. This scratchpad account might enable/encourage me to tweet out blog post drafts as well! Although I guess that's kind of a different thing. More hmm.)

      workflowy feels like a list, there's a meta-context you can pop out to. whereas twitter seems to me more like a graph. I often get the sense of "I wonder what the full shape of this tweet is"

      Loading seems to be taking a while.

      Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
