Semi-Auto Bullet Journal

2021-04-22

As a step between version one of organizing creativity and version two, I wrote this chapter on organizing creativity for a student conference. It is in German, but it might be useful for some.

The German language is awful enough, it does not need an artificial speech disorder.

Crawling your own website

2021-01-24

I used R to write a crawler and downloaded the text and the images. Leads to nice analyses, e.g., a nice word cloud of the tags and categories.

A Notability-based Digital Bullet Journal on a Tablet — Best of Both Worlds?

2021-01-06

If you like to use a bullet journal, but do not like the disadvantages of paper — why not use a tablet and keep a digital handwritten journal. Essentially the best of both worlds. (An idea in progress.)

A comment for those seeking to use this site for personal gain: Given the increase in requests, let me be clear. I write on this blog because I want to. It’s my hobby, my playground. Sometimes people point me to interesting products/services and I write about them. But any request regarding ads or sponsored placements ends up the trash without a reply. And if you think something would be of interest, differentiate yourself from the spammers by referring to a posting — in an intelligent way. (I get enough auto-generated mails to identify them immediately.)

BTW, posts can get updated after I published them if I spot spelling errors (not a native speaker) or think a different wording might improve precision and clarity.

This blog is not focused on a single topic, or method. As long as it is relevant to improving creativity (or allowing it in the first place), it's fair game.
Some postings on this blog deal with freedom, as I think that we need freedom of thought, of speech, of association, etc. pp. to solve mankind's problems. Thus, some postings may seem a bit remote when it comes to organizing creativity. Freedom is, however, the bedrock of creativity.
The heterogeneity of the postings can make reading this blog a bit cumbersome, at least if you are only interested in one topic. You can either use the search function (above), or use the categories or the tags to narrow down the postings you see.
