Connecting visual notes with Obsidian Excalidraw
Connecting visual notes isn't as easy as connecting textual notes. Yet those connections are an essential part of taking notes that actually help you learn or remember things. In this video, I talk about ways to connect Excalidraw drawings and hybrid notes.

Visual note templates with Obsidian Excalidraw
Переглядів 46 тис.2 місяці тому
How can you create visual note templates that encourage both visual and textual note-taking? The Obsidian Excalidraw community plugin bridges this gap in Obsidian by allowing the creation of hybrid notes: notes that are both textual and visual by default. Obsidian Excalidraw is created by Zsolt Viczián. // RESOURCES Support Zsolt Viczián: ko-fi.com/zsolt Obsidian Excalidraw plugin: github.com/z...
Learning in public with Personal Knowledge Management
Переглядів 3,8 тис.2 місяці тому
The quest of learning in public with Personal Knowledge Management is really about making what you learn observable and exposing your process, rather than your result, early and often. This is a rendition of a talk I gave at the PKM Summit in Utrecht, the Netherlands, on March 23rd, 2024, and it relates concepts borrowed from performance engineering and software development to PKM systems. // T...

I have one question if you don't mind, I see you have a custom obsidian because there is a gap between the left pane and your 'main' panel 4:16 , is that a feature I don't know? Could you please share your UI setup ? Thank you Nicole.

    I'm half Dutch, born in Australia and speak fluent Dutch, with an Aussie accent. I look Dutch, am 6'6 and athletic. Even I will never be Dutch nor accepted by them. I’m ok with this. I don't have a right to move to The Netherlands as I was not born there. I have family in Amsterdam, who speak the local dialect and have been priced out by disconnected whordes of rich yuppies in the tech sector. Many of the road yuppies have lived in Amsterdam for decades and can't even order a beer in Dutch. The housing crisis is bad, and prevalent in both countries in part due to this.

      No one from outside can genetically become Dutch. Even though, she mentioned they wouldn't accept her as dutch, the point is not that. She, in the video, says no matter how many years you live there, they won't ACCEPT YOU. You will never feel you "BeLong" there But I thought she poorly mixed the two things together and people made it about the genetics. FYI, By Law you Can change your nationality

    Hi Nicole, I like all your videos but run in a problem with my Obsidian. I am using theme Vileplume and today, all colors of my menu tree on the left side vanished. It looks kind of depressive at the moment. I wasn't able to restore the colors. I installed Style Settings but when I click on it it says: No style settings found. What is wrong?

  • @halvarmc671
    @halvarmc671 21 день тому

    The thing that's really powerful about Obsidian in general is that I can do whatever I want and make the application work for me and not work for it. Most other PKMs, they're not bad, but they kind of try to box you in to their method of thinking. Like Logseq is a good application if you like working on a block level and being an outliner, but the downside of Logseq is that if you do a link reference, it automatically creates the note. Which, I use those in Obsidian as a sort of page holder or signpost for a gap I want to fill. So, what happened when I used Logseq, tons of empty pages, because sometimes I go back and delete the link because it's no longer needed. Then you look at something like Dendron, which has some great ideas like dot walking notes. So, you might have projects.project A.meetings or something, and being able to set schemas, also refactoring a note, but also being able to refactor and entire structure. I would love to have that in a more user-friendly setting. Like something between Logsq, Dendron, and Obsidian.
