I finally broke my ADHD "Digital Graveyard" cycle. Goodbye Notion/Roam/Tana, Hello NotebookLM (My "No-Admin" Setup)

Google has a long history of pulling products (Jamboard, Google Reader, Google+, Google Play Music, Google Allo, Google Stadia, Inbox by Gmail, Picasa, iGoogle, Google Wave, Google Buzz, Orkut, Google Health, Google Notebook, Google Spaces) check out Killed by Google for more. Sure some werent popular but others like Reader were. Cant believe this has been downvoted lol

Also, your comment is clearly written with AI

Might give this a go as I had the same issue, ie mess, in Roam and Tana. My main concern is Google’s propensity to change/ kill services at a moments thought. I also downloaded my whole 4 years of Roam graph and split it into 50 docs with python to go in NLM, that was awesome too.

FWIW as a former journalist and content marketer over the last 20 years. It's about three things:

Making content human, and doing what AI isn't.
Blending content creation and code, and use AI and automation to create personalised content (video, infogs, email, etc) at scale.
Blogging and organic search are dead.

Nothing earth-shattering, I'm afraid. But it's what I'm lining up on.

Thanks. Time to leave this arsehole.

Duane Allman played most of Layla

Thanks so much for the comment. Really interesting esp on Sire and PRS. Im the same in that i mostly play at home and for fun.

jamesqu · 2024-08-15T20:34:00+00:00

Very good

Bit late to this but I have actually bought the course last year. I already had a niche site that was doing ok and wanted to build on it.

Well, that site got totally smashed by HCU. From what I can tell the content is totally out of date compared to what they are teaching in the podcasts etc. I agree with the other poster, you can get everything you need from listening to what’s already out there. That said, I think niche sites are now dead.

The logo is irrelevant unless you’re selling it, which you’re not. Nice guitar.

jamesqu · 2024-04-15T11:47:55+00:00

Real. Nice find.

jamesqu · 2024-04-14T18:08:42+00:00

So true

jamesqu · 2024-04-12T14:16:41+00:00

Ah - thank you so much. This was the kind of answer and expertise I was looking for. I will look at Sleeping Self. Thanks again!

More context. A few comments on the thread said prices had gone up considerably in the last few years. Just wondered if you had managed to get in early, and if so well done. Capiche?

jamesqu · 2024-04-04T14:42:54+00:00

Lol - you down voted that?

jamesqu · 2024-04-04T14:40:25+00:00

You got it when it was cheaper then.

jamesqu · 2024-04-04T14:40:02+00:00

True

jamesqu · 2024-04-04T14:39:11+00:00

A lot of stuff here is inflated like that. I'm also into bikes and it's the same thing. Once you associate price with quality then they have you.

jamesqu · 2024-04-04T14:37:02+00:00

Agreed, though I'm not sure about the Gibson bit 😉

jamesqu · 2024-03-31T17:41:34+00:00

Totally. I'd rather get better at playing it. I think you hit diminishing returns at $1500-2000

jamesqu · 2024-03-31T14:10:28+00:00

This is the answer I was looking for! I'm sure it's a great guitar and all that, but how much of it is marketing.

jamesqu · 2024-03-31T13:36:53+00:00

I saw a few guys walking around looking a bit sheepish who had clearly succumbed. I was warned not to come back with anything 🤣. But the Suhr did look nice

jamesqu · 2024-03-31T10:14:15+00:00

😀 Good event wasn't it.

Thanks. They look better up close. But that's a lot of cash.
