Sounds like the Zettelkasten system.
I'd like to try it. It sounds like a system you don't back out of, a system for life. How was your experience with it? Any caveats you'd discovered along the way?
I bought some heavy weight, dotted grid cards and they’re really beautiful. But be careful - you don’t want to get precious about them. Part of the appeal is tearing them up when they’re no longer needed, and using as many as it takes to capture an idea.
