A digital garden is a form of notetaking that is, by design, an ever-evolving work in progress…
Sort of like an online commonplace journal that allows one’s mind to wander the path-thoughts without plans for where the path might take them.
Like a true garden, a digital garden is a living collection of reminders, glimmers, notes, and ideas, that grows over time in connection with all the other bits growing in the garden. It’s cultivated, yes, and a little wild around the edges. The purpose is to explore topics and relationships, to brainstorm and mind map, to connect and link.
Some people plant their gardens on borrowed soil (read: other platforms), but I thought it might be nice to plant mine here in my own space. It is a work-in-progress and little bit messy but exploration without adventure is just…boring, no? Enjoy the stroll.
This project was inspired by Caro’s sharing of her own garden and a want to create a mind map (of sorts) in the Interwebs đŸ˜‰
Onward,
