Archetypes of Notetakers
Anne-Laure Le Cunff considers three types of note takers: architects, gardeners and librarians. This is what she means by this.
- The Architect. They enjoy planning, designing processes and frameworks, and need a note-taking tool that allows them to easily structure their ideas.
- The Gardener. They enjoy exploring, connecting various thoughts together, and need a note-taking tool that allows them to easily grow their ideas.
- The Librarian. They enjoy collecting, building a catalogue of resources and need a note-taking tool that allows them to easily retrieve their ideas.
- Extra: Tiago Forte adds The Student to the list, tough I think they are included in the three above, but maybe they are more exploratory.
