Public Roam Graphs

The practice of making one’s Roam Research database publicly accessible — sharing a full knowledge graph with connected notes, annotations, and backlinks rather than publishing individual documents. A form of learning in public: the graph itself becomes an artifact others can browse and learn from, exposing not just conclusions but the structure of the thinking that produced them.

The adjacent aspiration (@blakeir): “I’d pay a hefty premium for annotated editions of books from individuals that I trust and respect” — Public Roam Graphs are one realization of that idea, with the annotation layer made browsable rather than published as a book.
