I’ve been thinking about how to better organize my thoughts to truly turn this into a digital garden, and I realized that I’ve been pretty narrowly restricted in the scope of what I could publish here - namely blogs, project write-ups, and professional portfolio stuff.

But I want more; I don’t want to have to wait a month before I’ve finally curated, formatted, and edited an entire blog post worth of information before being able to document it in my garden, because this will inevitably lead to a loss of information (because my memory simply sucks), and also introduces a certain degree of disingenuity - since I don’t actually have thoughts in a blog post format.

So I’ve decided to introduce some new tags (and note types) to help expand on this digital garden in a more organic way, in the theme of ‘Journey’

  1. footprint Small, initial thoughts
  2. trail Emerging ideas ond
  3. expedition Well developed, but evolving ideas
  4. odyssey Comprehensive blog posts or extensive projects

I’m not sure yet how to unify this new tag convention with the existing project and life/tech blog categories I was using so far, but for now I’ll start by attaching these where applicable; indeed some notes might require categorization as something else altogether - portfolio , for example.
