If you think you’re able to use Notion for something, you probably can.

Set up Notion however you like

The central premise of Notion revolves around blocks of content.

A block can be text, images, links, a checklist, or bullet points.

you could also change the colors of specific blocks to help them stand out among your mass of information.

Any content you upload doesnt count toward your workspace storage limit either.

There are some caveats to the import feature.

With a bit of finesse, I can get the desired effect, but its not an apples-to-apples experience.

Theres also an option to enable Public Access on individual pages and notebooks available from the sharing menu.

I like to use this particular template to log my hours each workday.

You dont even have to format it after its filed.

Notion comes with a reminder feature to keep you privy to upcoming tasks and meetings in your calendar.
