Applications in which the Zettelkasten is superior to other approaches

Zettelkasten-based approaches close the gap between (digital) notebooks and visual systems (mind map, concept map, outlining tools) for presenting linked information.

Predefined structure for capturing a thought

Thought Tank captures the aspects WHY, HOW and WHAT of a thought separately. Depending on the view on a thought, the system presents these aspects differently.

This is my father day entry. The first entry that should be detected as a diary entry.

Process support in place of self-discipline

Luhmann’s self-discipline in the care of a zettelkasten is replaced by ThoughtTank in parts by guidelines, method and process support.

Thought Tank features to build well documented and connected thought

ThoughtTank creates a methodological framework that supports the construction of interconnected knowledge. This is done through feature selection and specific instructions for creating notes.

Not only collect information, but link it

A zettelkasten brings advantages for those who gain new knowledge and insights from connecting information.

Anchoring of information in long-term memory

The creation of notes and the linking in the zettelkasten support the storing of information in the long-term memory.

Documentation of larger, coherent thoughts: the entrypoints

Index notes are entry points into a topic. They offer a linear structure with which one can study a topic. We tag these notes as entrypoint.

Quickly get to the core of a thought

For this purpose the author describes in the summary WHAT the thought means for the user or a discussed topic.
