🧠 Backlinks
------------

The new 🔗 [Backlinks Menu](https://help.taskade.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052520634--Project-Links-Cross-Linking) lets you build your own second brain in a few clicks! Create a network of interconnected tasks, thoughts, and projects.

Here's how it works:

1.  Type @ + project title to link projects together. You can also "Copy Link" for a task or project in the 📝 [Share Menu](https://help.taskade.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016024673--Share-a-Project-Add-Collaborators) and paste the hyperlink manually.
2.  Click the "Backlinks" button at the top of the project you're editing. Taskade will show you all @mentions (backlinks) leading to the project.
3.  Finally, select an existing backlink to quickly jump to the connected task and project. And that's it! [Learn more](https://help.taskade.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016024673--Share-a-Project-Add-Collaborators)
