Maps of Content
Table of Contents
Hub notes get written by hand when one topic spreads across too many files to hold in memory.
Key Concept
- Hand-curated hub when one topic sprawls past what memory can hold.
- Level 1: When one topic spreads across too many files, write one hub page that links them - like a table of contents you draw by hand when your binder gets messy.
- Level 2: A map of content is a hand-built table of contents when one topic outgrows memory - link the sprawl in one hub.
- Level 3: MOCs appear when you open six files to answer one question - the hub beats whatever the folder tree implies.
- Level 4: Write the MOC when search fails you twice on the same topic - curate by hand, do not wait for auto-indexing.
- Level 5: Linking by Meaning builds the graph; Network Analysis finds hubs - a hand MOC wins when metrics cannot replace judgment about what belongs together.
- A table of contents written by hand beats whatever the folder tree implies.
- Write the MOC when you keep opening six files to answer one question.
