Make sure to go full circle by publishing your notes on a blog and start ranking!

I bet I could make it to the front page of HN if I blogged about my notes on taking notes. Everyone loves that sort of thing.

HN is more of a notes of writing software for taking notes, but hey I'm sure people here would be happy to branch out.

I don't know, articles about zettelkasten get a lot of love: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=zettelkasten

I have to append site:reddit.com before most queries now.

Health and medical queries are the worst. The top results literally have the same generic content.

You don't want medical advice from reddit though. At least the university websites are trustworthy enough to decide if you need to see a doctor.

Maybe a no-filler health info website could be viable if it spread by word of mouth and not via Google. After a while it should become well-ranked on Google anyway, like Wikipedia or StackOverflow. Getting it to that point is a chicken-and-egg problem though.

A tool that records the sites you visit and makes their content searchable locally would be pretty nifty. It'd be a MITM, which isn't awesome, but if it's not a managed service that might not be so bad.

You'd need something like RSS to only download the useful contents. You could probably same a few forums' contents on a 500GB SSD if you stuck to text and used an efficient format.

I'm unsure if I could keep up with something like this with my daily workload/workflow where I already have to document so much.
