Transcripts
what if I told you that there's a better
way to take notes in today's video I'm
going to introduce an amazing program
called logseek that has not only
completely changed the way that I think
about note-taking but has effectively
supercharged my ability to be organized
and productive at work let's jump into
it
what is logseek Well Log seek is what's
called a personal Knowledge Management
application or a PKM for short and
that's basically just a software tool
that works like a second brain assisting
you with four increasingly complex
aspects of note-taking storing notes
retrieving notes organizing notes and
connecting ideas in my experience if
you're looking to take good notes at
work or at school you're going to want a
PKM that's good at all four of these
things in fact every single time that I
fail to build a good note-taking system
in the past it was because I've settled
for an application that can't do all
four of these things well to understand
what makes logseek so spectacular at
these four aspects I want to compare it
to some examples of other apps that I've
tried that have fallen short of this
standard oh and for context around some
of my decisions here just noting that
I'm a working professional and that I
sit in back-to-back meetings all day
long in these meetings I capture meeting
notes tasks ideas important decisions
project updates and more some days it's
like drinking from a fire hose and
having a good system to take notes is
important to me that said let's start
with level one storing notes the very
foundational requirement for a personal
Knowledge Management System is that it
can store notes in some form right off
the bat this is why I'm disqualifying
popular task management apps like apple
reminders todoist and Microsoft to do
from any consideration as a good PKM for
my needs technically it is possible to
put notes into some of the tasks in
these task management apps but none of
them are good for notes so they don't
even make it to level one and don't get
me wrong these are great apps for task
tracking I just won't use them for
Knowledge Management and they don't fit
into my work productivity systems I also
unfortunately have to exclude anything
cloud-based from consideration things
like Google drive or Rome research
because my company doesn't allow any
confidential information to be stored on
the cloud your needs may vary all of
these exclusions aside I'd probably put
Microsoft word into this bucket and yes
I've seen people use word as their
note-taking software you know who you
are word can be technically used offline
and it's fine enough if all you need to
do is store a few notes as soon as you
add multiple documents or you need to
find something though you're going to
find that word just doesn't stack up to
a real note-taking application logseek
on the other hand is also a completely
offline solution meaning nothing is
stored on the cloud and it's incredibly
easy to add information to it the
creators to actually tout it as an
offline first privacy focused tool that
does not share your notes with the
internet with logseek you can easily
store notes manage to-do lists save
images annotate PDFs and so much more
logseek also supports markup languages
like markdown and org mode if you're
into those things although knowledge of
those is not strictly required oh and at
least at the time of recording the app
is completely free and available for
Windows Mac OS Linux IOS and Android
let's move on to level 2 Note retrieval
storing notes is all well and good but
how does log seek stack up when it comes
to retrieving notes well like many other
personal Knowledge Management Systems
logseek does have a search feature and
it's incredibly fast and you can use it
to search your entire graph which is
logseek's equivalent to a notebook or a
workspace there are other personal
Knowledge Management Systems out there
that have decent search as well like
OneNote and to be honest I don't think
one app has a huge advantage over the
other in terms of search there are some
features that we'll get into later that
do give Lock seek an edge when it comes
to retrieving notes but the real
Advantage starts to show when we get to
level 3 Note organization you see with
OneNote all of the notes have to be
organized manually into notebooks
sections and Pages this is satisfactory
if you have a lot of time and not a lot
of notes but in a fast-paced setting
like at my job it quickly becomes
unsustainable for example imagine that
you have a morning meeting where
different project managers give view
different updates about all of their
respective projects where would you
store those updates in a OneNote would
you create a page for each day's morning
meeting and take notes as each manager
delivers their updates or would you have
a page for each project and update that
page with the notes and what if the
speakers change subjects rapidly or the
notes could potentially fit onto more
than one page do you try to click around
really fast to get everything onto the
right Pages do you implement putting the
same piece of information in multiple
places do you scramble to take notes on
one page and then set aside time later
to organize them what happens if you
don't have time later what happens if
you get too behind and you never go back
and organize your notes does your whole
system fall apart leaving you
overwhelmed filled with existential
dread and crying while laying face down
on the floor next to your desk because
it's 8 pm and the rest of your family is
downstairs having a movie night but you
don't have time to go because you're too
behind on your notes
I mean you could certainly try to create
a process that addresses these issues
but you'd be working against OneNote
logseek is the opposite it's designed at
its core to work with you in situations
like this not against you and that's
because it's self-organizing and data is
connected together in the same way that
a human brain is as opposed to a
traditional file and folder organization
system to show you how logseek
self-organizes first we have to get it
installed head over to logseek.com and
download a copy and then install it
the first time you open logseek it'll
prompt you to choose a folder to store
your notes and then logsq will create
your first graph again think of a graph
as a unique notebook or a workspace and
that's it once your graph is created
you're ready to begin the first time you
open your new graph you'll notice that
you've been brought to a journal page
for today's date this is on purpose the
creators of logseek recommend that you
just start typing your notes into your
journal page each day and just to let
logseek handle the organizing for you
we'll see how this specifically Works in
a moment
but first I also wanted to note that
logseek is what's called an outliner
this means that everything in logseek is
written in bullet points each bullet is
called a block and the block is the
atomic unit in log seek and it's a very
important concept that we'll get more
into later what's important for you to
know now is that you can indent by
pressing the Tab Key and unindent by
holding shift and pressing the Tab Key
indentation will associate every child
bullet with its parent the SE also going
to be important a little bit later but
hold that thought
by the way you may have noticed that
I've oh so conveniently left another
wonderful offline note-taking app called
obsidian out of this conversation so far
obsidian is honestly another really good
PKM and I like it a lot the main
difference between obsidian and log seek
is that logseek is meant to be an
outliner an obsidian is not the notes in
obsidian are by default in normal
paragraph form
in my experience that logseek is an
outliner by default reduces the friction
of data input that I feel with obsidian
and just makes it easier for me to just
jump in and start taking notes without
thinking about it too much to me this
gives log seek The Edge okay so now it's
time to see why organizing notes with
logseek is so much different as we've
been chatting about obsidian you may
have noticed that I've been entering the
notes from my morning meeting this is
the first step for my workflow I just
open logseek and just get some data in
there in fact as we keep talking I'll go
ahead and get the next business day in
there too so we have two full days of
notes each of the project managers in my
meetings are talking about their
projects and they're going through their
updates quickly remember with OneNote we
struggled to plan out where that
information should go but with logseek
we don't have to think about it at all
that hesitation to figure out where the
notes should have gone is called
friction and friction is what causes
note systems to fail for me as soon as I
get too busy the system breaks down and
the amount of work it takes to get it
going again just becomes insurmountable
so now that we've started to use a log
seek to take our daily notes let's now
suppose that I need to prepare a report
on one of the projects for my boss and I
need all of my notes from one of my
project managers about it one way I
could find that information is the
traditional way through searching to do
this click the magnifying glass at the
top and start typing in your search
logseek has a very fast search when
there's a topic or a concept or a
project that I'd like to come back to
again I won't just use the search though
instead I'll create a new dedicated page
for that concept
one way to do that is to type the name
of the concept such as project POS here
into the search and then click the new
page option at the top
from the instance of this dedicated page
is created logsq will start tracking any
reference to the title of that page to
see these wrap references click the
arrow next to unlinked references what's
cool here and one of the benefits of
taking my notes on my Daily Journal is
that I can not only see my references to
this project but I can see what days
that I made them and it's tracked
automatically for me and notice too that
the child blocks that are indented
underneath are included in the summary
as well hopefully you can already start
to see how I might use these references
to prepare my report for my boss about
this project effortlessly
next I'm going to head back to the Daily
journals though and show you an even
faster way to manage your pages
when I'm taking notes I want to move
quickly and this means I don't always
have time to click the search and
manually create a page so you can also
quickly create Pages by adding double
square brackets around your text and
logseq will automatically create a page
for that text if it doesn't already
exist and then clicking on any of the
links will bring you to that page
one additional benefit of doing it this
way is that you'll have these references
show up in the linked references section
instead of unlinked I prefer this
section so that I can look for items
that I intentionally link to this page
this also gives you the benefit of
filtering the references to find
specific information on this page I
could filter to see a specific time
range for example
so now that we have some pages let's
start working on that report for our
boss she wants to know the project goal
the key Milestones the progress to date
and the next steps for the project some
of this we can just go ahead and type
by the way I like to bold my headings
using markdown
as I type in some of the key Milestones
I'm also actually going to link to
Future journal pages and they're going
to show up for me as reminders on the
day of when I open this in my Daily
Journal which is really nice then we get
to the progress to date and the next
steps and as you can see below I've
already typed that information once into
my daily journals and a good practice
when dealing with data is to only put
the same piece of data in one place if
you recall this was a problem that we
had with one note in one note we would
have had to copy and paste this
information onto multiple pages instead
with logseek I can copy the reference to
the block from my Daily Journal and then
paste it on this page when I do that and
press enter I'll see the reference text
and you'll notice that it links directly
back to the original Source this makes
it quick and prevents rework I also want
to mention while we're here that there
is a third way to create pages
instead of double brackets you can also
use the hashtag in logseek both of these
methods work the same way the double
bracket and the hashtag but I prefer to
use the hashtag only for statuses for
example I'll make the project status
here delayed by doing this I can access
easily any project with that status
but at the end of the day how you use
these pages is up to your own personal
preference
a mention is that logseek supports all
kinds of plugins I'll probably make a
separate video about some of my
favorites but I do want to showcase one
today if you click on the jigsaw puzzle
piece and then choose the marketplace
button you can explore all the wonderful
plugins that are available today let's
search for the plugin called to-do list
and install it this will install an icon
in your top menu bar that has a little
check mark in it I love this plugin
because it ties in with the next feature
that I want to show you to do lists
do you remember at the beginning of the
video when I rolled out task management
apps like todoist from my work
productivity system well that was
actually because logseek has its own
that ties really well into my workflow
and I prefer to keep everything in one
app let's head back to today's notes and
pretend that I have an action item that
I need to complete that I learned about
in my meeting
by typing the slash key and the word to
do I can create a block with a check box
that represents an action item also take
note that this task will also appear in
my checklist when I click on the plugin
we just installed this is why I love
this plugin so much if I want to remind
myself about this task on a future date
you remember the trick that we learned
earlier where we could link to the
Future journal page we can do that here
too a quick way to do it is with another
slash command if you type slash and
search for the date picker command this
pops up a calendar and you can select a
date to link to I prefer to do this
versus typing it
to Do's also will alternatively let you
use slash commands called scheduled and
deadline to assign dates to your tasks
but I just prefer to use the date picker
and reference the page directly
instead of typing to do I wanted to also
call out that you could call your action
item doing or click it to change it back
and forth between to do and doing to
assign a status and if you prefer
there's also the now and the later
flavor of this that you can use if you
prefer that instead
checking the Box in either your journal
or your to-do list will clear that task
from your list you can even assign a
priority to the tasks with Slash
commands a b or c and these will be
filterable in your to-do list too it's
pretty neat
personally I just keep it simple and I
used to do for everything and then I
check it off as I go but I love that
logseek is flexible if you do have more
complex needs
so thus far in logseek I've opened it up
I've started typing notes and I've
created a few pages as a result
let's say that I want a quick way to
jump to a specific page that I will
reference often maybe a page let's say
that lists all of my projects so that I
can access them quickly I might even
want to link to the project statuses to
quickly see which projects are in those
statuses well I can accomplish this by
simply creating the page clicking the
three dots in the top right corner and
choosing add to favorites you'll see
that it will appear in your left pane
speaking of pains another cool feature
in logseek is the right side pane you
can hold shift and then click on any
link to send it to the side panel I
typically send my Daily Journal over to
the side panel and then I can click
around and find you know information in
my notes in the main panel as as I need
to as well and also just wanted to note
that you can edit your Daily Journal
directly in that right side pane it is
not read only
the last thing that I want to talk about
before we move on is a feature called
templates it's possible to select a
parent block and its children and give
that group of blocks a name for example
here's a template that I typed out for
my Daily Journal I always want to
capture notes on meetings notes and
tasks
I'll create a template by right clicking
and choosing make a template I don't
want the parent to show up in my
template just those children the
meetings notes and tasks so I'll uncheck
that toggle that asks whether you want
to include the parent block to make this
template show up every day in my Daily
Journal I'm going to head on up to my
settings and click edit
config.edn then I'll scroll down to line
23 and put the name of my template in
between the quotation marks I named mine
daily template so that's what I'm going
to put here now every day when I open my
journal my template is going to pop up
I also use the templates feature in
another way
so I'll head over to demonstrate this to
my project page and I'll create a
template for every new project page that
I create notice that it has markdown and
links to pages and everything included
same steps as before I'll make a new
template and this time I'm going to call
it something to do with my projects now
when I head over to my project Pages as
I create them I can type that slash
command and template to trigger the
template command logseek is going to
prompt me to pick the template that I
want to insert and then my template will
magically appear I use templates for
project Pages meetings that always have
the same agenda items and more it's a
super useful feature I mentioned earlier
a fourth quality to a good personal
Knowledge Management System and that's
the ability to connect ideas as I
mentioned before logseek does this the
way that a human brain does by
associating related ideas
see this click on your graph View
you can visualize the pages that you've
created and start to see how they all
come together
I don't really use this feature very
often in my workflow but I absolutely
see the value in being able to see
patterns Trends and Connections in your
notes I see this as being incredibly
helpful for writers students and
researchers especially
Okay so we've gone through all four of
the qualities of a good PKM and I've
shown you how logseek applies them all
now to summarize and kind of put it all
together
supercharge my productivity and
organization at work by first ditching
all the other software that couldn't
rise to the challenge then I simply
installed lockseek and started typing
all of my important notes each day into
my Daily Journal now as important topics
arise that I want to revisit I create
Pages for them
within those pages I used the linked
references to my daily notes and
organized them in a meaningful Way by
using block references for items that
need a status I use hashtags
for Action items I use to do's and tag
them with important related dates I also
use the plugin that lists my to-do's to
see them all in one place and to check
them off as I complete them finally I
use saved favorites the search feature
the graph View and the sidebar to access
my notes on the Fly and connect ideas
together
with this workflow I have a simple
frictionless way to enter notes retrieve
and organize them and visualize related
ideas
you use logseek let me know in the
comments how your workflow compares to
mine I'd love to hear your thoughts and
suggestions also if you found this video
useful please consider leaving a like it
really does help thanks and hey I'll see
you in the next one foreign
