Huge fan of paper as well. I think Merlin Mann called it the "ultimate ubiquitous capture".
A lot of people just keep thick journals, but I like A6 cards that I compile into slim exercise books. I just capture anything that comes to mind on a card[1] and let them sit on a pile. Then, after some time, enough stuff has accumulated and I review the cards and compile them.[1]
It has the sweet spot of not having to commit to something big (meaning it circumvents the urge to make it perfect, usually preventing you from writing it down in the first place), is reasonably flexible if you use masking tape to glue in the cards (there are some books that I could take apart completely and reuse) and can be stashed and sorted easily.[2]
