I finally got my Readwise Highlights synced into Obsidian in a way that lets me share all my highlights from my digital garden (garden.weidok.al). Take a peek if you want to see the books, articles, and podcasts I’ve highlighted and taken notes on:
Jakes Digital Garden - 400 Readwise Highlights
As I mentioned earlier this week, I’ve been reading a lot more physical books and I haven’t made the effort to save my highlights from those into Readwise.

2024 Blog in Review
My first full year of blogging is in the books! Or should I say, in the internet archive? Check out this neat sitemap graph of my blog generated by the internet archive.

I shared my article about my Obsidian Daily Note template on Reddit in the ObsidianMD community and got a really positive response. I was surprised how quickly people were already trying to incorporate changes into their workflow and had questions for me (I had never posted on Reddit before)! I even had one person (@amerpie) reach out individually to let me know the template had helped him, and came to find out he was a fellow resident of Micro.blog! The web is an awesome and positive place when you know where to look!
My Obsidian Daily Note Template
I use my Obsidian daily note as my main digital jumping-off point for things like:
habits daily log tasks journaling I’ve gathered ideas for setting this up from all over the internet over many months, and unfortunately, I don’t recall all the resources I used. Dann Berg’s post inspired my “Today’s Notes” section, and I first learned a lot about Obsidian from Nick Milo’s YouTube channel.
Below I outline what my template looks like, and how I set it up.
