The act of taking notes is useful, but the notes themselves might not always be. If you briefly dive into one topic but then never touch it again, there is a low chance you will revisit it (especially if it is specific, applied knowledge). Fortunately, we can turn our notes into a [[Digital garden]] to help them serve a different purpose—helping others who may also need the same niche information. In my case, my notes on how to [[Create your own digital garden with Obsidian Publish]] are no longer useful to me since I've already created mine, but can be especially relevant for people who want to create their own.
