Good tip, but I thought you were going to go a different direction with this. More like:

- Don't bother memorizing trivia. At least for work. Save room for the pleasurable trivia from your private life. Convince your team to set up a knowledge base and use it.

- Learn how to bookmark and reference stuff that is important.

- Almost nothing said in a meeting matters unless it is written down and most of the stuff that happens in meetings immediately evaporates into thin air.

- The palest ink is more reliable than the most powerful memory.
