No, and frankly, the increased search and lookup time when my colleagues can simply string grep them on their computers is a a handicap.
That said, I have never been able to take notes on a keyboard. I also find that physical notebooks not only are in practice much easier to search, but I also have the impression that the fact all your note pages physically still exist (and not "disappear" after you change pages) helps recollection.
- contravariant 3y agoWouldn't surprise me if linking the notes to a physical location aids memory.
- teamonkey 3y agoThat's the theory behind mind mapping. As a side note, I feel mind mapping works differently on paper than with something like Xmind. Xmind is for organising and categorising thoughts by moving them around. Paper mind maps are for helping me remember the conversation when I wrote them; I can't seem to use software for that at all.
- falling_myshkin 3y agoMe neither. Memory palaces also show that this effect can be emulated (not sure if that's the right word) in the mind. I wonder if there is a way for computers to encourage developing a 'mind map'
