## The Tagging System
Before we extract essential insights from fleeting notes, let's first understand a crucial mechanism: [tagging](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_(metadata)). This will be used to categorize and track the status of notes that live longer.

## Crafting Articles Worth Revisiting
In our journey of knowledge acquisition and reflection, we often encounter insights that resonate deeply, ideas that challenge our perspectives, and lessons that shape our worldview. While notes capture these fragments of wisdom, there is immense value in weaving them into cohesive articles, or, as we like to call them, "hub notes". These hub notes aren't just for showcasing expertise or sharing with a wider audience; they're primarily for us. They serve as milestones in our intellectual journey, allowing us to revisit, reflect upon, and reinforce our understanding. By crafting hub notes worth revisiting, we create a personal library of thought – a collection that stands the test of time and remains relevant to our evolving selves. This section delves into how to transform our permanent notes into hub notes that we'd want to read and reread, ensuring that our knowledge doesn't just reside in scattered notes but flourishes in well-articulated narratives.
