The Zettelkasten method goes back to Niklas Luhmann, a German sociologist who in academic circles is famous for his systems theory and his incredible productivity. What made him so productive was his unique way of note-taking and knowledge management, in the form of the Zettelkasten.

In this video I talk about what the Zettelkasten method is, who it's for and how it works in a digital environment. At the end of this video – Zettelkasten Method For Beginners · Simply Explained – you can decide for yourself if this method is something for you.

I want to make a video about the future of note-taking and knowledge management in the age of AI. Any questions or talking points I should address in it? Let me know! ✍

One of the most straightforward guides on the Zettelkasten method. You capture the essentials in a video and let people do the research on those things they didn't get (like the numbering system). Cheers from Chile 🇨🇱

Thank you for this amazing video! You really have a talent in explaining these sorts of concepts!
Also, I absolutely love the decor behind you in this video! That type of old, wooden furniture is truly breath-taking.

I wonder what his Zettlekasten notes for this video look like.

[vinodsamala]

Easy and straight forward. Thansk for the video mate.😀

[desmondnel]

I'd obviously heard of this before, but I hadn't realized I've been sort of doing this for a while. The one thing I haven't really been doing is reviewing it that often. Thank you for this video.

I came here for a German voice to give me the skinny version of this concept and was not disappointed. Saved me hours of scouring any further the wasteland of clickbait.

Thanks for this! I can type faster than I can write, and I like that I can search on words in the text. The hashtags help in that regard to think of keywords.

[funygameur]

Three videos in and obviously I've decided to suscribed, well done mate !

[Gimrison]

Thank you or "Dankeschön" for taking the time creating this video. Good work. The background is very nice, if you live in there you are very lucky.

I see a lot of ideas as a Digital 2D/3D artist, sometimes its training material, its images, maybe a para from a book by an author describing a landscape be it's a gaming tool description on how to enable a particular feature in the software, or just a windows registry tweaking note is it possible to use this method to collect and organize such information. How do I connect using Obsidian should I use YAML-type properties or tags. How do I connect/ remember or make it available when I am looking for an idea.

[ILLRICARDO]

I want to try zettlekasten but obsidian is so complicated and convoluted

[aliencloud]

a method to add, link, and organize notes?

So you’re saying this method doesn’t work for language learning?

[prabsidhu]

I am still a bit confused about how you store the notes so they are easily retrievable using this method. If anyone could help clarify this, it would be greatly appreciated.

[seanahern]

A great tool but I am concerned that using the digital tools for this note taking system we are providing more free material to AI and its offshoots?
