  • Episode 8 - Isaac Aderogba & personal knowledge management
    Aug 3 2022

    For this week’s episode, I interview Isaac Aderogba, a programmer and researcher based in London. As you’ll see, it’s pretty difficult to fit Isaac and his project into a box. Specifically, he’s building tools on top of Notion to make it the ultimate personal knowledge management machine. but on a higher level, Isaac is researching the best way to manage and access personal knowledge.

    Isaac and I discuss:

    • Zettelkasten and personal knowledge management systems and methodologies
    • Doing research versus building a product
    • And following your interests, even when you don’t know where they’ll lead you
