Talk 4: Personal Knowledge Management With Notion

During your career you will learn a lot, meet a lot of people and ... also forget quite a lot. Thats natural. Although all the information in the world is at your hands via google and stackoverflow, it can be handy to build up a personal knowledge management system. It's easy to access and you can save the infos there in a format and with a description which suits you the best. I'll show you how to use Notion as a knowledge management system, how you can store code snippets, do task management, have a "reading list" and build your very own "mini CRM".
