In this podcast episode, co-hosts Tom and Paco Cantero delve into the complexities of digital note taking in business. They distinguish between shallow and deep thinking and stress the importance of using various tools for different note-taking scenarios. Discussing the common confusion about the 'best' note-taking app, they advocate a tool agnostic approach where users select the best tool depending on their individual use case, business environment, and brain processes. For them at the Paperless Movement, the current apps which best support their productivity system include Reader, Tana and Heptabase, each catering to different stages of shallow to deep thinking. However, they emphasize that these tools may differ for others based on their distinct knowledge management needs.
