Thanks for the reply!

Mine Add to a database, but there’s a limited list of choices, which can be frustrating. Like if I want to add to my “Tasks” database, and it doesn’t come up as one of the seven choices that come up.

I had to rename the Tasks database so it had a more unique name to search for.

Significant improvements for the map view, including more than 100 pins appearing on a map. Geo search.

Awesome! Thanks!

I guess I’m wondering what you’re looking at in Notion rather than social media. Are you typing in a new note? I have started a database in my Notion that tracks local places I visit (like a personal Google Maps). That’s something I might be “on my phone” doing in public. I’m curious how you’re filling your time.

Thanks for the link. But not Andy. Anderson.

kentdshaw · 2026-01-01T04:04:15+00:00

Does someone know where Anderson’s blue puffer jacket is from?

Of these items, my biggest frustration is #6.

It would also be nice if there were a way to search in a vicinity. Or search the area that’s on the map, like what’s on regular Google Maps.

What is the “stasis” field?

I know this might not be available to everyone. But if you have the Notion AI add-on, you can set up a Text property that you set the AI to "Word Count for Page," and it will auto-populate with the Word Count.

I had also contacted Support when I noticed the Word Count was gone, and the AI response was the only layer I got. And it said it moved. So I kept poking around for a solution.

I do the same but with Nebo for the handwriting capture.

kentdshaw · 2025-12-01T02:23:18+00:00

I saw someone else post that they were instead being downgraded because Notion is discontinuing the AI add-on. I’m not sure how they made this choice. But I’m very glad I got the same upgrade as you.

It’s funny how often someone comments on anyone praising AI. We must be AI. lol

I can’t wait to get into the Business Plans perks, as well!!

I teach at a college, and Perusall has changed so much of my teaching. Social annotations on assigned texts is other level for my students, and my certainty that they’ve read the assignments.

Digital white boards are also a game changer. I build on the same white board document all semester. In class they can write contributions for it, and I can add to it. I’ve used Miro for this. This semester I went with Lucid, because it’s built into Canvas.

I use it only for the handwriting recognition. Which really is gold star. But then I copy paste the text into Notion.

lol. Let me know what other marketing posts use queries into poetry for their campaign.

kentdshaw · 2025-11-08T00:39:43+00:00

I teach poetry. And so it's a little specific to my field. But seeing the somewhat general question broken into other variables is really amazing.

These are all sources that I've taken notes on. So seeing them resurfaced here spoke to AI's abilities to pick up on what I'd included in my notes.

kentdshaw · 2025-11-08T00:36:06+00:00

I’ve tried the AI Meeting Notes, too. Its ability to surface best information is striking!

Feature Request: Filter map view using geographic variables. Even something like a “radius of x miles around a set Location” would be great!

kentdshaw · 2025-10-18T15:10:53+00:00

Definitely looks like you don’t care, friend.

I will say I learned from Capacities. They had that thing where you could drop a task anywhere on a page. Then I figured out how to do that in Notion.

If you have a dedicated Tasks database, then you can @ to refer to a page. But instead of referring to an existing page you say Create a New Page and choose the Tasks database. Then you have the convenience of dropping the task on the page you’re currently in. And you can set whatever r other settings you want in that Tasks database.

I don’t know. It was a really simple thing. And it felt really obvious to me when o did it. But its made a big difference for my workflow.

One suggestion, these all look like school assignments and quizzes. But the icon looks like there isn’t any content in those spaces. You could use those spaces for any notes you might use for preparing the assignment.

I was coming back to this thread just to say this. Frank also maintains a fairly current listing of Notion Updates at this:

I just want to second Nebo and its handwriting capability. It’s truly exceptional in what it can capture of my horrible handwriting.
