IVGraphKnowledge graphs
A knowledge graph stores facts as things and the links between them, so you can follow connections instead of matching keywords. The basics are in a plain-English explainer with examples, from Google's Knowledge Graph and Wikidata to a graph of your own notes. Other guides cover graph views: whether Notion has one, how to read Obsidian's graph, and how to turn a Notion workspace into a map. For language models, the GraphRAG guide explains when answering from a knowledge graph works better than vector search.
The articles share one idea: notes are easier to use when you can see how they relate. A Notion workspace is already a graph, with pages as nodes and relations, mentions and backlinks as edges. IVGraph draws that graph in 3D, so clusters, central pages and pages without links become visible.
