The weekly magazine has been suspended for a while, and I found that it was a bit stressful to keep updating every week. After some adjustments, I found that updating every 3 weeks is more suitable, so let's update it every 3 weeks, or even monthly~ So this month's magazine mainly shares interesting things discovered in November!
Personal Information Flow Sharing#
In this issue, I will share my information flow and draw a simple diagram:
This set of information flow is very comfortable for personal use. You only need to read articles on inoreader or reader, and with the Readwise service, the annotations made while reading can be automatically synchronized to note-taking software like Logseq.
Step 1: Input, which is subscribing to information sources.
Here, I subscribe to some public account push notifications, Bilibili Uploader updates, as well as RSS feeds from V2EX, TechNode, Juejin, Douban groups, Zhihu Hot List, Weibo Hot Search, etc.; if it is a newsletter subscription, you can also configure email forwarding to input all the required data into inoreader.
Step 2: Collection, which is the initial screening of information sources through automation.
Here, I use inoreader's rules and monitoring capabilities to monitor keywords in newly added information sources. For example, I monitor Vite, and then set up a Webhook forwarding service. When Juejin, Zhihu, or Frontend Q public account push articles about Vite, inoreader will trigger my custom Webhook to send the articles to my WeChat Work bot, achieving the effect of monitoring information sources.
Similarly, I also monitor the new articles of the "Shenzhen Health Commission" public account. If the title contains the words "daily new", it will also be sent to my WeChat Work bot, thus achieving the function of subscribing to the situation of Shenzhen's epidemic.
Step 3: Reading, which is reading articles and making annotated notes.
Here, you can use Reeder or read directly on inoreader. The former is a native reader, which provides a better reading experience. Both Reeder and inoreader support the same vim-like shortcuts, making the reading experience excellent:
- J: Previous article
- K: Next article
- M: Mark unread
- S: Mark star
- Space: Page down
With these shortcuts, you can digest more than 300 articles a day. After marking some articles as stars, you can read them carefully.
Annotation is also very simple, just underline while reading. Whether it's underlining in the reader or taking notes, it can be automatically pushed to Readwise.
Step 4: Organize and output, which is using note-taking software like Logseq to organize reading notes.
Both Logseq and Obsidian have official Readwise plugins, which can periodically synchronize annotated notes to local notes for further organization and processing.
Logseq directly outputs the effect of annotations:
Obsidian directly outputs the effect of annotations (integrated with DataView):

"Confidence Man JP" is highly recommended. I even rewatched the Hero arc in my spare time. Even though I knew there would be a twist, I still got excited when the twist came (PS. I really like the character Datsuo).
As for "The World's Amazing Stories," it feels like opening a blind box. I don't know if this short story is interesting or boring. Overall, I gave it 4 stars.
As for "Money Can't Buy Love," even though it is a comedy, I cried in the fourth episode. I finally understand why so many people like Haruma. His smile is truly healing, bringing the character's joy and sunshine to the depths of the audience's hearts. Gradually accepting that in life, farewells will outnumber encounters, and losses will outnumber gains.
-"The trickling stream flows incessantly, its drops varying in form, foam floating on the mud, appearing and disappearing, with no lasting example. The affairs of the world, the dwelling places of birds and beasts, are no different."
In addition, I also like the protagonist's anti-consumerism perspective, thinking about whether a purchase is consumption, waste, or investment before shopping. After all, money is exchanged for life energy, and if what you buy doesn't match your life energy, it should be more about self-love than material consumption.
