USB Wiki - Organizing Thoughts, Tracking Change
When I first encountered Wikis outside of Wikipedia, I just did not see the value. This happens with all sorts of technology, and usually means it’s not immediately applicable to what I’m doing at the time. When my brother first bought me one of those USB sticks, I actually had to ask him what it was. Less than a year later, I couldn’t be found without it.
The same is the case with wikis. Besides Wikipedia, which I often used as a starting point to more in-depth research, I couldn’t imagine using a Wiki for to-do lists, document version tracking, or collaboration. These days, I carry a GTD TiddlyWiki on my USB drive and organize all of my thoughts in tiddlers. I can look back on early renditions of my internet marketing ideas and blog posts, and I can use it to track my progress with projects. I can’t recommend it more highly.
