A public map of notes from my second brain

I built a personal system to capture notes, file them and ask questions of them. A public slice of 47 notes I chose to share is live as a map you can search and read.

SamsMind brings capture, filing, search and questions into one workflow on my laptop. The public site shows only the notes I approved for sharing.

My contribution

I defined the note workflow, privacy rules and filing areas, chose which notes to share, then reviewed the implementation built with AI tools.

01

Use the areas I already have

A saved note receives an ID and timestamp. The filing step chooses from my existing areas (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives) instead of creating new categories each time.

I can find a note through search or a map of connected notes. Both open the same saved material.

02

Answer with the source attached

The question feature cites the notes used in its answer. A notes-only setting tells it to say when the answer is missing.

If an answer includes general knowledge, that part is labelled separately so I can tell it apart from my saved notes.

03

Decide where the data goes

Personal notes use local processing. If that route is unavailable, they wait rather than being sent to a cloud model.

The public site is a separate export of notes I marked shareable. The private collection and the app itself stay on my laptop.

04

The public map

Each dot is a note and lines join related notes. You can hover to preview, click to read, or search.

It is read-only. Capture, sorting, linking and questions run only in the private app.
