I only need pen and paper when I'll have to draw anything (diagrams etc). For all other cases it's much faster and more convient to write it down in Workflowy.

I only need pen and paper when I'll have to draw anything (diagrams etc). For all other cases it's much faster and more convient to write it down in Workflowy. I've never really liked to write things by hand, so maybe that's the reason…
- quizbiz 15y agoHow do you organize your workflowy so that things don't get lost?
- markoa 15y agoMy main node in Workflowy is the work journal. The structure is year - week no - date. Other nodes (ideas, projects, travel etc) don't get that much input so it's easy to navigate.
- rdtsc 15y agoI never really write down text much, it is always diagrams, squigles, a graph, a formula. There is always a stack of legal size papers (about 20 or so) on my desk right in front of my keyboard. I write on it as a sort of a quick scratchbook of what I am thinking or to organize things and concept that don't fit in my brain. Looking back at the used pages, I see a bunch of circles connected with lines for example, as I was trying to figure out a good topology for process dependencies, stuff like that. I could not find anything digital that approximates the pen+paper responsiveness, ease of use and resolution. Also looking back 3 days ago, I actually cannot even figure out what my squigles mean, they had their purpose at the time, but it was a very short term purpose. For me it is more of a swap-device-like system than a permanent storage.
