The "traditional" method for personal note-taking.
|
|
The notes formed with linear notes tend to be tree-like thus it is useful for ordered information.
|
|
Useful for initial learning where you want a roadmap of the lesson.
|
|
|
|
Linear notes also tend to create hierarchy over time.
|
|
While nice to have, it can also limit the information you can put in each note.
|
|
Tools like [[https://www.dendron.so/][Dendron]] help with hierarchical notes.

While linear notes are great with ordered learning, it is not great with linking the notes.
|
|
The solution: free the hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
Non-linear notes free you the worrying where to put the note by removing the structure.
|
|
This allows to freely make notes and extend in any direction.
|
|
|
|
One of the notable features of non-linear notes is the freedom to link different topics.
|
|
This is where non-linear notes like the ones found in [[id:4259636e-e0e8-49e4-8210-758ec59728a3][Zettelkasten]] or [[id:24b5e144-dda4-482c-9684-958a00d6c986][Roam Research]] tend to shine because of freedom from hierarchy.

|
Oftentimes, they are made to be associative but not all of them (e.g., flashcards, concept maps).
