I strongly disagree with the premise (that the only utility from note-taking is being able to forget about it). I take copious lists and notes, and am surprised how frequently I can find some incredibly apt (but very obscure) reference I stumbled upon and noted 4 or 5 years ago. The exception are links to youtube videos, which often vanish.

did you read the article? the idea is you write a note to forget it, get it out of your mind, and then later relying on the fact you can rediscover your note when you might need it.

  I scanned it, in that case the title is misleading and contradicts the article.
