The more you worry about format, the more friction there is making to making notes. And you don't want friction, you want a sustainable habit. Just dump stuff in. You'll figure out something that works over time. It's easy to get bogged down with meta-issues like infrastructure and custom Emacs macros and automatic replication and other yak-shaving nonsense that only adds complexity, which increases the likelihood that you'll drop the habit.
