I'm back, flomo#
The above are my two flomo accounts. Let me explain in detail the reasons why both accounts were abandoned:
- Account in Image 1: The tags were chaotic, and due to initial use, content was recorded without much thought, without considering future organization, resulting in this account becoming a text junkyard. Although 300 memos were deleted during this period, it still remained chaotic.
- Account in Image 2: The tag system and I were already in harmony, just lacking the finishing touch, so this APP was put on hold for two months.
I have known flomo for almost two years, and it was through it that I came into contact with card notes. I have read "The Card Note Writing Method" twice and a half, with new insights gained each time. In my experience, the card note method is not simple at all. To use this method well, at least two things are needed: a systematic tag system and a complete recording/operating method.
On 2023-09-08, I logged into the second account and still had dissatisfaction with the tags. Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration, made some modifications to the tag system, and completed the entire tag structure.
Interpretation of the Tag System#
- All "pinned tags" are index cards. (Red)
- All tags starting with "0" are content cards. (Blue)
For example
The sub-tags of the pinned tag1. Review
include:1. Review/Decision Log
,1. Review/Life System
,1. Review/Life Observation Journal
. These sub-tags can all be found in the full tag list, and their common feature is: they all start with "01." as tags, such as01. Decision Log
.
The essence of card notes lies in having two card boxes, one for storing the content itself and one for storing the interconnected knowledge after thinking (index cards). I aim to use the "pinned" function and numerical sorting design to create two card boxes within one software.
