Note-Taking

Google’s NotebookLM is an AI-powered research assistant that helps you analyse your own content in almost any format, including Google Docs, PDFs, videos, and audio files. You create virtual notebooks for each topic or research area, then upload relevant documents. NotebookLM creates a custom dataset (or searchable knowledge base) from those files that you can then query. Unlike other chatbots, the responses are based on the content that you provided. And those responses include citations to the original passages - you know exactly where that answer has come from. The other big advantage of NotebookLM is that it can handle up to fifty 500,000-word documents. That’s a total of 25m words! Even if you’re a prolific note-taker like me, you’d struggle to exceed its capacity. ...

If you’re anything like me, you consume all sorts of content: books, blog posts, newsletters, and podcasts. It’s hard keeping track of it all. In this short demo, I’ll show you Readwise, a web-based tool for collecting, organising, and reviewing your highlights. I’m not associated in any way with Readwise, I just love it!

There are lots of great note-taking apps out there, but sometimes you just want to scribble with a pen and paper. In this short demo, I’ll show how the Rocketbook gives you the best of analogue and digital.
