Digital Serendipity
Like Serendipity, the digital version could be a happy accident. It is one of the things I am hoping that a tool like Obsidian can stimulate.
It is important to make sure this happens on platforms we trust. There is an opportunity online, for things to feel serendipitous but actually be kind of creepy through tracking.
