Jorge Arango: Duly Noted

Larry Swanson
About this episode

The promise of computers augmenting our minds has been a long time coming. We're beginning to see better tools for extending human cognition, but good guidebooks for using them have been sparse.

Jorge Arango's new book, Duly Noted, fills this gap elegantly. It shows you how to extend your mind with connected digital notes that capture your thoughts and nourish them in a personal knowledge garden from which you can harvest and share your unique insights.

Through February 15, 2024, use the code ContentPod to get a 20% discount when you order the book at the Rosenfeld Media website.
