Andrew asked that Logseq, a platfor for knowledge sharing via outlines, support OPML. I heartily agree, and add that we will help as much as we can.#
Following up on yesterday's thread about integrating LO2 with Obsidian, an idea promoted by SMS. He said he expected that putting a word inside two [[square brackets]] would open a page full of links to that word within my outline. This is a very important point, and one I want to focus on. I actually put that feature into the outliner I currently use to write my blog, when I saw how they were doing things in [[Roam]] and [[wikis]]. I will ship that for sure, it's a good thing, I'm using it myself. But! It would be so much better if all these tools worked together in an open web of these things. That's the way I think about it. Remember, I led the development of [[RSS]] in its early years. I always wanted outlines to be world outlines, ie to include content from other outlines all over the web. I've written a lot about that. In that context, I should be integrating with a world wide service that integrates lots of tools into a database of linked material. Roam insists that you use their editor, which is abhorrent to me, I will never support that, where Obsidian takes the open web approach. So the question I throw back to SMS and others is how can we set things up so a [[bracketed]] reference works with the world wide link manager. We can do this. The technology is totally here. It sounds like [[Obsidian]] is off to a good start. #
