Roam Research became not just a replacement of my note-taking system. It changed the way I read, write, and think. I can't sit with a book now without taking some notes in my Roam. When I write, I think of how the idea I'm writing can be linked with the previous or future ideas that I'm interested in.

I've been keeping a daily log in Google Docs for years, in the style of a lab notebook, entries for todos, and every task I am doing, with code snippets and papers I am analyzing.. Roam makes the experience much more wiki-like, as it is very easy to create pages. It isn't quite as scriptable yet, but the flow is very good. Just hit the / key and get to work.

Roam is like a Batman Utility Belt for organizing information. It was light but powerful, useful but not distracting, contain weapon to think but also defense for capturing information. Currently one tool that I use mostly daily with delight. It beats evernote, notion, and dynalist. Heck, I even stop writing in Ulysses!

This product has so much potential I want to already call it product of the decade. It's the first digital product that actually makes me want to journal my daily life and habits and collect as much information as possible. Bi-directional links are absolutely a game changer.

The ability to generate thought maps and hyperlink is less static and more dynamic. The Co founder is very accessible.

I admit at first glance I was skeptical for yet another online note taking/journaling app. But after watching the videos and a quick play, I can see value in this due to the ease of timeline automation. I will be trying this for a while to see if it can replace a few tools, which is key to any new app/service.
