For example, you can change the link in the flat file database, and it updates in all of your files. If you and I shared a Hyperbole link file, I could write a link `<(like this)>` right here in the chat buffer and you could use it from within the Emacs chat client ERC. + +## Other discussions from IRC + +- Feedback + - I like this method of the talk slides being kinda transparent so you can see the speaker behind them. + - This looks very interesting tbf + - Its cool to see how many different note taking packages there are in Emacs + - Very nice talk-- and very understandable for me as a beginner who had never heard of hyperbole and did not understand the use-case.

However, I do think that Hyperbole does have many advantages when you're starting to embrace the idea of "dynamic links" of all sorts. So far, I did not get creative enough to start with Hyperbole for that + - rswgnu : If I may ask, I keep looking for either uses cases or capabilities that Hyperbole could bring to bear beyond what I'm doing with Org/Org-mode (taking in account that its has custom link types and elisp links and such), are there some that would come to mind?
