Digital GardenMy real garden where I get inspired daily.
In early Spring, 2025, while researching how to publish Obsidian notes to the web, I came across a video about Digital Gardens, a metaphor for sharing your creations early in the creation process .
My Digital Garden is a core part of my GoMicro publishing project.
This Practice In Public concept made a ton of sense to me. I have thousands of notes because I write every day and collect lots of ideas. But I share very little of that.
The "roots" of this garden is my Obsidian based PKM , a knowledge base for ideas to connect and grow.
With a Digital Garden You Plant...
fragments or "seeds " of your notes
that might grow into "sprouts " and
one day may become ""evergreen ", meaning they are long lasting, and somewhat "finished".
I love metaphors, especially ones using the natural world, so the Digital Garden was perfect.
Does a Digital Garden "Work"?
Yes! I'm amazed at how well it's working.
My intention was to start sharing in ways I had not done before: more loosely, freely, quickly, with less listening to my inner critic .
By day 2 of the project, I posted 15 notes, which is more than I usually post to my website in a year! By day 4, I'm up to 23!
