Yes, do a log challenge. But what do you use to do the logs? Best practices if there are any??

Curious what you think about Notes on Substack and how that might fit (or not) into your logs.

Really enjoyed reading this, Michael. And this: "Logging is about recognizing that something novel has just happened. It’s an “aha.” It’s pairing the act of surprise, insight, humor, or struggle with the habit of grabbing your phone." I found it brilliant. It encapsulates everything, the whole, grand scheme of things of thinking, processing, and writing. I also enjoyed your logs, particularly the one about a clothes store where everything fits -- it may well be the idea of the century! :)
