# [[Continuous note-taking]]
Continuous note-taking is a term I coined that refers to the implementation of [[Continuous Improvement]] and [[Agile]] practices from [[Software Development]] and [[Software Testing]] to [[Personal Knowledge Management]].
Specifically, continuous note-taking consists of:
- an iterative approach to taking notes, where notes are improved over time as opposed to taken from "start" to "finish" in a linear fashion
- the integration of a new note into the wider note-taking ecosystem
- frequent publishing via [[Learning in public]]
- listening to feedback from publishing and using that to further improve notes and understanding
## The Continuous Note-taking Manifesto
In a playful twist on the [[Agile Manifesto]], here's a list of things that the Continuous Note-taking approach values.
> [!tip] The Continuous Note-taking Manifesto
> We are uncovering better ways of developing knowledge by doing continuous note-taking and sharing our knowledge with others.
>
> Through this work we have come to value:
>
> - **Practical uses** over methodologies and tools
> - **Learning in public** over polished work
> - **Incremental improvements** over getting it right the first time
> - **Searchability** over structure
>
> That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
