What was your ‘Aha!’ moment with Tana?

2
•
Tana has a learning curve, but once it clicks, it’s a game-changer. What was the moment when you realized just how powerful it is? ---- For me, it was the moment that I realized anything in Tana could become... anything! With my background in building atomic design systems and running deep data analysis, I understood the power of maximum fungibility. And then you add AI to the mix... Everything clicked in that moment, and I understood that while Tana is excellent for note-taking (I see it as the gateway drug), there are no limits to what's possible. This short video is the result of that early 'Aha!' moment:

I'm obviously a biased source for anything, but I came from other PKM apps, and the first time I saw Tarjei set up a live search to make a table from a newly created Supertag I realized this one was different! Just being able to create these 'feeds' of information so organically blew my mind. Still took me two-three weeks to make the jump, but I never looked back.

I've had many great aha moments that have enhanced not only the way I use Tana, but also the way I think about HCI. The biggest one for me is "everything is a node". Similar to yours Nick! Once that clicked, it changed my whole perspective on working with information. It's a simple concept with profound implications - nodes aren't just reusable pieces of content, they're fundamental to everything in Tana. Supertags, fields, commands - they're all nodes, just with different characteristics and powers.
