Knowing and Enforcing Policy Within Your PKM

General

  • Offerings
    • General questions cannot get specific answers.
    • The field is both wide and diverse.
      • I don’t know anyone experienced enough in this field to provide statistics on whether something is “very often a good idea”.
      • Neither am I.
  • Structure
    • It matters.
    • But structure is considerably unknown in the beginning.
      • If structure was already well known, the need for a knowledge graph would be limited.
        • Structure has to gradually emerge and be discovered with the help of the graph.
        • This is characteristic to PKM.
          • Most other tools only consume knowledge, but PKM produces as well.
      • It is impossible to impose unknown structure (that is in the beginning).
        • Imposing the wrong structure is counter-productive.
  • Methods
    • Review (manually) the graph from multiple different perspectives.
      • The more, the better.
    • Repeat.
      • It is natural in each iteration to notice things earlier missed.
    • Don’t spend more time in managing knowledge than in knowledge itself.
      • The system should serve you, not you the system.
    • Any artificially imposed limitations should be easy to lift when needed.
      • You cannot fully assess something if you don’t know how it is without it.
