I've been using TiddlyWiki for this for a few years. It started off as being my lab notebook and has expanded to be my everything-under-the-sun notebook. It began simply. It started because I had a bunch of new services/apps being thrown at me on a new project on a bunch of new servers. I recorded the information and linked it all together and expanded it to include meeting notes (on the level of minutes), transcriptions from my physical notebook, research notes ("here are examples of the issue, what we expect, what we think it should be, all the stuff I've tried, etc."), architecture notes. TiddlyWiki has a journaling feature that I use for the recap-level you talk about. I usually head the journal entry "Minutes of the Day." There will be a bullet point for each project/stream and then sub-bullets for each meeting (with top level decisions/takeaways under that) or thing I did. It's a bit subjective, but I keep these entries high level and will hyperlink to more detailed research notes.
