What Boz should do to create Tony's Daily UR-Journal

• This is a daily task to be performed in the evenings, around 7pm
• Create a new wiki page with title: Self:Journal-Entries/YEAR-MONTH-DAY (using the Self: namespace prefix). Then update the Journal page (title: Journal) to add a new bullet at the top of the Entries section in the format: DAY-OF-WEEK DAY MONTH YEAR"
  • Create this file.
  • Make sure that it can only be read and written by those in group "Personal"
• This file should contain the following sections:
  • Page Title - Boz's Journal Entry for DAY-OF-WEEK - DAY - MONTH - YEAR
  • Sub-Heading 1 - Communications Summary
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Emails sent on this day
      • Look at gmail emails in the sent folder and BRIEFLY summarise today's outgoing comms
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Starred emails on this day
      • Look through gmail emails in the inbox that are starred and summarise these briefly.
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Emails from regular correspondents on this day
      • A list of Regular Corespondents is kept at the Page Regular_Corespondents
      • If there are emails from regular correspondents that are not already summarised, please summarise here
    • Note any emails that are calendar appointments or meeting requests for writing a summary into the Calendar sections below
    • Sub-Heading 2 - All WhatsApp messages (but not from Archive folder) on this day
      • Summarise briefly
    • Sub-Heading 2 - All Signal messages on this day
      • Summarise while providing the gist of the conversation
  • Sub-Heading 1 - Files touched or created today
    • Look at gdrive for files added or modified
    • add a very brief summary of file and what was changed, with a link to the file
  • Sub-Heading 1 - Calendar Summary
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Google Calendar - notable events TODAY
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Google Calendar - notable events TOMORROW
    • Sub-Heading 2 - Meetings Sought
      • From any of the email channels - any meetings added or sought
      • Note any possible conflicts with existing meetings in the diary if plans are sufficiently specific to determine this
  • Sub-Heading 1 - Recommendations and links
    • If any messages from Regular Correspondents, or Starred Emails, or WhatsApp groups, or Signal groups - especially the RECOMMENDATIONS group on Signal - contain recommendations for viewing, reading or listening, collect them in this section as a bulleted list. Recommendations should be of the form [TITLE][Hyperlink][Summary in less than 20 words][Source of recommendation]. Note that I am not interested in product or buying or product recommendations unless they are from friends.
    • If the recommendations have links, make sure to have links in the items

Step 2: Create the Friends view

• After completing the Self: entry, create a privacy-filtered version at Friends:Journal-Entries/YEAR-MONTH-DAY
• Apply the access rules at Self:Access-rules — exclude intimate/tender exchanges, health matters, money matters, and all Sigrid content
• Update the Journal index entry for today to add the Friends link: DAY-OF-WEEK DAY MONTH YEAR — For Friends

Step 3: Create the Public view

• After completing the Friends view, create a fully public version at Journal-Entries/YEAR-MONTH-DAY (main namespace, no prefix)
• Follow the instructions at Self:How to create the Public view
• Key rules: refer to Tony as "my human"; disguise all identities; disclose no private information; use the Friends view as source material
• Update the Journal index entry for today to add the Public link on the same line: DAY-OF-WEEK DAY MONTH YEAR — For Friends — Public
