My first cloud note

Youdao Cloud notes. When I first used it, I used it to record the passwords of various websites. I felt that MY memory was not good and I felt a bit obsessive-compulsive. Before registering any website user, I would first write down the account password in my notes. In recent years, to make things easier, some passwords have been saved directly into Google accounts, but the habit has stuck.

Extensive use of youdao cloud notes, is that just work, technical director is grazing type for us, so long as according to the point in living, there is a lot of free time to go to hell, every attempt to new technology, encounter a bug, have detailed records, who also didn’t want to see, feel later encounter the same problem, there is a document can reference, recalled the train of thought.

When I was writing this article, I looked at the data of Youdao Cloud. On August 5, 2013, I started to use Youdao Cloud Note. I used the cloud note for 2,481 days with 1,062 notes.

Now it seems that the benefits are:

  1. Taking notes will help you organize your thoughts. For example, a bug, how to reproduce, how to solve, why to solve, how to avoid in the future? All combed clearly;
  2. Deepen the impression. Learn a knowledge point, solve a bug, and then go back to organize the document, equivalent to review again;
  3. Virtually build a personal knowledge base. Every time you encounter the same problem, as long as you search in the notes, you can find the notes written in the previous period. If you can solve the existing problem, everyone is happy. If you can’t solve it, after a search on Baidu And Google, you can improve the notes and form a positive feedback.

Many of you have this feeling: This problem has happened before, how did you solve it? A certain environment is built at the time of the thief, after a period of time, the first step is forgotten.

Every time I have this pain point, I take notes diligently. And then it becomes, well, this is a problem we’ve had before, so go through the notes and we’re done.

Some people want to ask, if you have a problem, Google it, wouldn’t it be the same? Why bother taking notes?

For example, there are 6.27 million search results on Baidu and 4.05 million results on Google for common NullPointExceptions. I just take the empty pointer as an example, conveniently click into an article, for everyone to learn next:

Read this article, my heart is not broken, mouth slightly smile…

Sifting through millions of articles for answers, and searching for results in your own notes, is remarkably efficient.

In between, I’ve used similar products: Notion and Evernote

Notion is said to be a cross-era note-taking software. As for Evernote, I also used it for a while. Maybe IT was because I got used to the client and shortcut keys of Youdao Cloud Note. When I used evernote again, I felt strange and didn’t get used to it.

Language finches

Until, during the pandemic, I met the Whisperer, who filled most of my notes needs:

  • Markdown syntax support and real-time display;
  • Title outline preview;
  • Export md, PDF and other files.
  • Can publish to the Internet, be a simple blog, etc…

Including this article, is also written in the language sparrow, I hope before the grass youdao Cloud notes of the students do not beat me, YOUdao I will still use, but the use of the scene will be some changes.

The tools may change a bit, but the original purpose of note-taking and writing remains the same: to record those good, striving days and nights.

The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, the next best time is now.

I hope I am AD nag this thousand words, can give you some inspiration, I harvest a lot from the notes, recently also began to write the public number, forced their output. At the same time, I firmly believe that the more you share, the luckier you will be.

College entrance examination composition I just write 600 words, don’t ask why not 800 words, BUT I can change line small expert.
