Backlinks are bad

Backlinks are bad because they do not provide any additional information. Rather they take away in cognitive performance because there is another link you might follow. Rather links should come from a natural flow, because the note builds on a previous note, for example. Or to include an idea from another note. I’ve come to believe that linking keywords within the idea to other notes is a better approach than a list at the bottom linking back and forth.

How to Link Notes

Notes should be linked, as is the basis of the Zettelkasten idea. However, to effectively link notes try the following: Link to a more general idea. Link to a more specific idea.

In the meantime we have learned that there is some truth to this manner, but having these as a list at the bottom of a note doesn’t work.

Tags in Zettelkasten

In his Zettelkasten Luhman used tags sparringly, in this video explains that Luhman used tags more as doors into the Zettelkasten, rather than as a way of grouping things together.

The principle of autonomy: Each note should be self-contained and comprehensible. This includes autonomy from other notes, but also from the sources.
