✶✶ key: .DATA-TYPE channel name (type) [topic] Last-name First-name / Publication-title I have three distinct types of channels, each with their own naming scheme. Data-type channels are the most broad, grouping blocks by general information types, e.g. .IMAGE, .EXCERPT, .SOUND. Named channels can function as tags, projects, or atomised ideas, e.g. community, personal website, deconstruction of social media. Generally, a longer name signals a more specific channel. I also distinguish between types of channels that fall under the same name, e.g. code (cheatsheets) and code (tools). If I need a few topics grouped under one name, they go in the []. Publication channels group excerpts and other information relating to a single piece of media, usually a book, e.g. Papanek Victor / Design For The Real World
