Tag every note with a type

Going through the Linking Your Thinking workshop, I’m realizing that to cut down on my confusion, I should tag every note with a type.

Obsidian allows for nested tags. So when I create a new note in the morning right after waking, I’ll tag it as #type/journal/dream. If I’m taking notes on an article or podcast, I’ll tag it as #type/book or #type/podcast-episode (#type/podcast is a series).

Live sessions or meetings get tagged as #type/live-session.

If it’s a note about a concept, like “confirmation bias”, then it will be #type/concept.

If it’s a “Map of Content”, then it’s #type/moc (or #type/hub since this is how I prefer to call them).

Other tags:

Each note has a type, and explicitly labeling it as it is makes it easier to figure out what to put on it and how to link it to other notes. With Dataview, I can create automated lists based on the tag. So if I want all my live session notes listed on a course page, I can include something like this:

```dataview
LIST FROM #live-session and [[LYT7]]
SORT file.name ASCENDING
```

This was a little epiphany that I had last night. I had thought of doing this before for Roam, but felt it was too much.

I wonder if it would be better to put this in the frontmatter...
