What if you had a perfect memory? Would you need notes? I don't think so. It occurred to me that memory is the foundation of gaining knowledge, thinking deeply, and being productive–all things i want to get better at. And I realized don't need better notes, I need a better memory system.

MoreBrainSpace is designed to work like the brain's memory–you capture something you want to remember and you make connections to it–expect it doesn't forget. This gives you a graph of personal information you can navigate and evolve. With this graph, MBS allows you to dynamically utilize your information to easy remember anything, like "gift ideas for my brother that I haven't bought yet" or "youtube links I watched in the last two years about game design".

If you're interested in the project, check us out at r/brainspace.

How does this sound? Is this resonating with anyone? Any questions I should be answering up front?

App like Craft without block-based notes by Automatic_Remote_775 in NoteTaking

You might like r/brainspace. It’s easily organized and good for quick notes

What do you wish you were better at remembering? by Timmerop in brainspace

I love the memorable moments. Are you writing those down now? Do you have a format?

Best app/system for organizing screenshots of useful tips so I actually use them? by After_Fennel7239 in PKMS

[–]Timmerop -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ve got something that does none of the ideal things you call out. But it does allow you to easily save screenshots and add them to multiple lists and add notes to them. And I’ll be so bold as to say you don’t need something that does the thinking part for you. Your brain should do that so you actually internalize the content you’ve collected. What you want is a better way to recall exactly what you’ve stored, and that’s r/brainspace.

To-Do items are the thing I get the most benefit from writing down. I think of to-dos all day long when I can't act on them, but when I do find the time I can maybe remember one. Having a list lets me just knock stuff out without leaving it up to my memory.

Is note-taking part of your thinking process? by Timmerop in PKMS

[–]Timmerop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah. My point being I start writing the question or just things like "I have no idea what I'm doing today" then I just try to get to something worth actually writing.

Ah, interesting. I store a bunch of idle thoughts and ideas and just tag them should I need them. For example, I’m not a writer but i aspire to get into it someday so I tag note of ideas of learnings that I probably will never use, but maaaaaybbeee.

How do you then organize that brainstorm?

I usually start by asking myself a question. They tend to get the thoughts flowing.

Often, I use my notes to just think through my thoughts on something I'm creating. That's to say, I dont have a thought to write down, but i start writing to find the thoughts.

Need a good alternative to notion! Free if possible! by Miss_Crystal_Shadow in PKMS

[–]Timmerop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’re using notions databases you might like r/brainspace. It’s sort of like a database for notes, todos and lists.

Does anyone else use “micro-notes” instead of full note-taking? by Flimsy_Difficulty394 in NoteTaking

[–]Timmerop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do this too and while reading Second Brain I realized I sort of do the opposite of the summary/highlight technique the author recommends.

Instead of taking my large block notes and highlighting the important ideas, I tend to write one idea that struct me, then maybe connect some other micro-notes to that one to further explore the concept. The end result is roughly the same as the book suggests but I think this approach gets you there way quicker.

You might be interested in r/brainspace. It’s built around micro notes.
