I'm with you. I've got all this technology around so usually about twice a year I feel the need to take advantage of all these smart devices and go paperless. Each time, I eventually end up back at paper.
To me, paper is frictionless. I can focus on capturing my thoughts without getting distracted or sidetracked. When reading from paper, I can write in the margin. When I've got a lot of thoughts, I flip over the page and write or draw on the back. It's great.
I've got a stack of scrap paper (old one-sided print outs) that I use, so I feel less guilt about the 'waste'.
I can't solve a hard problem without paper. Writing words, drawing lines, making physical connections makes the ideas flow for me.
