Hey folks! This week's video is going to be about an app I've been trying and using for seven months: Napkin.one. Napkin is an entirely separate app from Obsidian that uses AI to do something I haven't traditionally been a fan of... tagging.

I talked about Napkin in my AI in PKM video a few months ago, but wasn't ready at that time to talk coherently about workflows using Napkin. I feel like I'm at that point now: I've used Napkin to help kickstart several presentations, notes, and blog posts, as well as to just spark interesting connections I might not otherwise have made.

On a personal note, I'm going to be travelling for the next month for two work conferences in Singapore and Sydney, but I plan to keep making videos throughout it. Let's see how successful I am with that. :D If you're a gearhead like me and you're curious about my remote work setup on the road, here's a photo of everything I'm bringing to work on the road for the next 30 days.

Hope you enjoy it!

Tagging and linking with AI (Napkin.one)

In this video, I demonstrate my workflow for tagging and linking with AI using the Napkin.one app. Napkin is an app that uses a fork of GPT-3 to intelligently tag thoughts with keywords that improve over time. I like to use Napkin to tag mostly my highlights from Readwise. // RESOURCES Napkin: https://napkin.one/?via=nicole Readwise: https://readwise.io/nicole The Lost Art of Taking Good Notes, a talk at EuroSTAR 2023: https://conference.eurostarsoftwaretesting.com/event/2023/the-lost-art-of-taking-good-notes/ // TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:56 What is Napkin? 01:50 Getting thoughts into Napkin 04:13 Tagging and reviewing thoughts in Napkin 08:04 Creating stuff from thoughts with Napkin 13:09 Exporting data from Napkin 14:27 Limitations of Napkin --- // ABOUT ME Site: https://nicolevanderhoeven.com Mastodon: https://pkm.social/@nicole My travel YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/c/luckydippers k6 YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/k6test // APPS I USE - Obsidian: https://obsidian.md - Readwise: https://readwise.io/nicole - Shortform: https://shortform.com/nicole - Reclaim: https://reclaim.ai/r/s/yYOqK // GEAR https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/gear/ // WANT TO SUPPORT ME? ❤️ Join my Patreon and get my sample vault with templates: https://patreon.com/nicolevdh ☕ Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/nicolevdh Note: Some of the links above are affiliate links, which means I may get a small percentage when you sign up using those links.
