Founders

I built my own bespoke second brain app - just for me. I've been using it for over 4 months, capturing thousands of short notes that I can freely explore - in a graph, as a map or using an LLM. 

the coolest thing about doing something like this is having a piece of software that is truly bespoke - in this case perfectly adapted to ways I naturally like to think and work. 

for example, a few weeks back I took a few hours to hack together a highlighter chrome extension. I can use it to highlight anything I read on the web and it automatically appears in the app in real time. I can have it open on another screen and instantly see all other notes I've taken that are related by the context (this uses AI). I find this workflow powerful because I love reading and writing, but I hate organising - so I get AI to do it for me. 

what's the last thing you've built for yourself?

Always interesting, frequently more useful than expectations, and consistently illuminating. Appreciate the flavour
