Last week, I stumbled upon an article from Maggie Appleton about digital gardens. It got me thinking about the space between a quick note, whether its LinkedIN, Substack or where ever you might be posting, and longer blog posts. The ideas that are evolving, the fun little projects, the stuff that is sharable, but too complicated for a note, and too unstructured (or “off-brand” for an article).

In a world where we can move fast and deploy even faster, I lik the idea of sharing how the why came to be, fun tips and tricks, little things I do. Not to mention being able to update them as is go.

So, I rebuilt my website, added Field Notes as a section, then mixed up my metaphors and kept the garden terminology to describe each note . We’ll see how it goes.


This note is a living document and will keep changing. It's not an article. It's a notebook page I'm letting you read over my shoulder. If you spot something I'm wrong about, or if you've worked through the same thing differently, reply to henrik@holenventures.com.
