PKM and Knowledge Management

  • I use Obsidian for general note-keeping and I pay for an annual license. I used to do this so that I could use it at work but now I do it just because it’s nice software and I want to support the developers.
    • I maintain completely separate vaults for my personal notes and my work notes so that I don’t bring anything confidential home with me.
  • I synchronise my personal obsidian vault across devices using Syncthing
  • I use SilverBullet to provide a web-accessible copy of my private notes in case I find myself away from home without access to my laptop or syncthing. SilverBullet will happily work with my Obsidian vault via the syncthing sync.
  • I publish my notes using My Publication Workflow.
