I’ve started using Notion to jot down notes and ideas and turn them into task-lists. It’s been most useful to replace locally-saved OneNote for my Python and Azure study notes, because I go between my work laptop and home PC frequently.
I see a lot of potential with this tool. It loads faster than Google docs, allows image pasting and emoji insertion, is free with no ads, and so far has been mostly intuitive. Because it’s cloud-based I can access my Notion notes from any computer or phone with internet connection. I’m excited to explore how to use it better, to jot down the ideas swirling in my head and turn them into manageable to-do lists and productivity journal. Heck, I want to try Notion for Nest Cafe blog post outlines too!
Akshay Kothari, Notion co-founder, describes this potential well:
“We hope that Notion becomes the third generation of productivity software, after Microsoft Office and Google Suite. We’re much more powerful in that people will be able to not just take notes and manage projects, but will be able to create things that work the way their brain works.”
How do you like to use Notion? Feel free to share in the comments any tips, lessons, or templates that have been useful to you.
