Field notes on useful software, quiet places and making room for better ideas.
A useful tool makes the next step obvious. It does one thing well, keeps your work portable and lets you return to the task that matters.
Start with a simple text file. Add structure when the notes ask for it. There is no prize for the most complicated system.
Familiar streets become interesting again when you change direction. Look for the afternoon light on a wall, an unfamiliar doorway or a tree you have walked past a hundred times.
You do not need a destination for every walk. Sometimes noticing more is enough.
A personal notebook for ideas worth revisiting. No feeds to keep up with, no account to create. Just a few pages on the open web.
