I’m sure there are some #pkm people in here that use a digital #zettelkasten. How do you solve "where to file a note" problem? Let me elaborate.

I don’t use any IDs because it seemed that it's a paper process problem. At the same time, when I wrap up a note, I don’t immediately know which ones to link it to to add it to the graph. The paper approach solves this by filing it under the closest relevant ID.

If I don’t link the note immediately it's effectively lost forever, because it's outside of the graph, it most probably has some random title (titles are hard!) and it is in a folder with 400 other notes.

Maybe I should keep such notes as Fleeting until I can link them into the permanent graph? For me it created a problem of notes being fleeting for too long because there's no place to anchor then either.

I **suppose** that IDs solve this problem because you can always apply at least the "soft" structure of ID topics. But is there a better way?
