I used to use trillium notes (which is really good) for GTD and idea mapping for a few months but stopped. I just use a big three ring binder with some five star hard to rip paper now with some plastic sticky tabs for categories and write down things that are important. The barrier to taking down and recalling info is both low and high enough in just the right way that I remember things I want to remember and can recall important enough forgotten things by referring to my notebook. I just reference other ideas by category and some other detailing info and flip through until I find what i'm looking for.

Digital notes are good for a lot of people and a lot of situations but not for my long term very general knowledge based tasks. For specific commands/documentation/syntax/techniques yeah digital notes are nice. For Brain storming, and connecting ideas though? I fully believe paper works best. It's more flexible.

Plus it is known that when you write things down with ink and paper, your recall tends to be higher. That doesnt mean its perfect for everyone, but a larger than just an average amount of people.

I like your idea - what ever happened to that e-ink note pad one could write on and it saves a digital copy?
