This week I took a rather big decision. For months Iāve been in doubt with which app I should continue to make notes, save interesting links, gather knowledge and all together work in during the day. I have been an avid Evernote user for many years, but unfortunately it didnāt grow with me and how I want to do my work. Since the start of 2020 I have been flip-flopping between Notion and Roam Research. Yes, the two big names in knowledge management. each with their own cult and following. I decided to go with
Notion and went all-in. I still have my Evernote notebooks, especially for searchable documents, but all of my work is happening in Notion now. Even writing this newsletter happens in Notion, so I can play around with different blocks of news and links before I put it all in Revue and send out the newsletter.
When I took the plunge, I also decided to learn more about Notion. Thatās why I started a newsletter. Because why not? It is
a newsletter that curates news about Notion from various sources like Youtube, blogs and Reddit. Itās a different kind of newsletter than the ones you might subscribe to. It is a collection of links, put together by an algorithm instead of a human. Some days you might have ten very good links, some days you just have 2 Youtube videos.
I wrote a
post on Indiehacker how I built this newsletter in
Mailbrew and how I started it with a Twitter list. You too can make your own newsletter like this. It takes 30 minutes to build one so it could be something to try out for a topic you are interested in.
Have a great week and donāt forget to take a look at
Thanks for Subscribing, Iāve added dozens of new titles to the directory!
