I'm the same. I'm a bit of a noob with web dev, but I've recently started work on my second medium-sized web project. Since doing my first one, I've learned a bit about database normalisation, but in some ways it proved a stumbling block: I couldn't get started until I'd made some database tables, but now I knew I should design the database first, yet trying to get everything down in Notepad seemed too much trouble. When I tried writing each table out on a post-it-note, it was so much easier - even enjoyable - to come up with a normalised schema. I wonder if/when computer technology will advance to the point where it's as flexible and disposible as pen and paper?
