[0:00] there was an article recently college
[0:01] students today don't know what folders
[0:04] are the professor says oh go to this
[0:06] folder what's a folder a whole
[0:07] generation coming up now that grew up
[0:09] with Google I haven't used folders on my
[0:11] laptop for probably 10 years that whole
[0:14] Paradigm is going to pass away and Laura
[0:17] lecompte is the founder of Nest Labs an
[0:19] ex-google employee and a neuroscience
[0:21] PhD I've ridden about almost 5
[0:24] no I don't know how you do that but
[0:26] anyway go on and she's built a digital
[0:28] note system to help her publish hundreds
[0:30] of Articles a year in order to be so
[0:33] prolific in terms of writing obviously I

[0:37] and then transform this into actual
[0:39] original ideas and Laura's second brain
[0:42] is built around two digital worlds Rome
[0:44] research and the Google Suite Rome is a
[0:47] folder-free note-taking app preferred by
[0:49] the Gardner archetype note takers who
[0:51] connect notes on the Fly whereas Google
[0:53] keep is used by the student archetype
[0:55] that favors ease of use and quick
[0:57] capture no matter where they are for the
[0:59] longest time I was using only Google
[1:01] products it's a proper Google fine girl
[1:04] so I would take my notes in Google Keep
[1:07] do all of my writing in Google Docs I
[1:09] would even book the time that I need to
[1:11] write in my Google calendar
[1:13] so everything everything would happen in
[1:16] Google but I am a believer in specific
[1:20] tools for specific jobs I think for
