Several years ago, I started a site (Org Mode for Beginners) to host videos to help people learn how to use Org Mode within the Emacs text editor. I have not made any new videos for several years, but I am ready to start making Org Mode videos again, and wanted to let my readers know. I also wanted to get some feedback on what topics people would like to see covered in my videos. I would really appreciate it if you could reply and tell me your number one question about using Org Mode, what would help you to be more productive, or make better use of Org Mode. That would help me to best target your needs! Thanks in advance for your reply, and be watching for a new video soon!

Nick Anderson: How I Org in 2024 – “Org-mode is my exocortex, second brain, second mind, mind palace, pensive, and personal knowledge management system. It’s very flexible and the features I use as well as how I organize my files continues to change so I collected things here to document how I do things in 2024, I did this in 2023 as well.” Interesting descriptions of use of org-capture and how he retrieves information from his org files.
