I mentioned last year that I'd started Obsidian's daily notes feature and was finding it really valuable. That continues. I saw an article recently (which I now can't find) about someone else's approach to daily notes. They'd write down interesting things, and then at the end of the day, roll them up into a month-level note, zibaldone style.
For me, daily notes have been most useful for stuff that I want to organise/have in my head in a strictly temporally local context (i.e. really today) and then have expire, rather than worrying about storing and filing lots of daily notes. Usually, that's little snippets of stuff I'll need later but don't want to file long-term, or ephemeral tasks which are useful to turn towards when I have a spare moment, but really don't matter enough to be worth sending to any actual to-do lists.
But there are occasionally things that it would be useful to tuck away somewhere but don't fit neatly within my existing filing system. When they're more involved, I've often renamed the note at the end of the day to be more descriptive of the content. That's not entirely satisfying, though, but makes rediscovery/disposal after the fact easier.
But this zibaldone appraoch appeals, for little snippets of stuff that I like but don't want to extensively file. Here's one I kept from a few days ago:
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravens_of_the_Tower_of_London
Another story concerns the two ravens named "James Crow" and "Edgar Sopper". James Crow, who was a much-loved and long-lived raven, had died. After noticing the commotion surrounding the other raven's death, Edgar Sopper decided he could "play dead" in order to bring more attention to himself. His trick was so convincing that the ravenmaster fully believed that Edgar Sopper had died. When the ravenmaster picked up the "corpse", Edgar bit the man's finger and "flapped off croaking huge raven laughs".[45] Likewise, "Merlin" has since been known for eliciting a commotion from visitors by occasionally playing dead.
