Post your notes
Posted: Fri Jan 22, 2010 8:07 am
I used to be one of those "I can remember enough just listening notes are for scrubs" people, but a few years back I saw the light - writing shit down really makes things easier. I've gotten so addicted to writing things out, not even those oil change coupons people leave on your doorknob are immune to my writing
(fyi the finished product of the doorknob notes isn't finished, but the contents of those notes helped spawn most of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_AUcZGChE4 )
I used to do school notes the analog way, had it down to a science (check out me fitting three lines of text in one college ruled line near the middle)
But then I got a windows 98 laptop and now notes are so much fasterrrr. I took lolnotes on how fructose is bad for you; the lol biochem part is basically how all my science notes look ( http://pastebin.com/f78d6e31b ) I'd love a tablet laptop so I could draw on my notes, but for now I'll settle for the ancient laptop for concepts and paper for diagrams.
I've gotten so enamored with electronic notes, I've started compiling all my old handwritten notes into digital form. Being able to access your notes from anywhere with internet is a big plus, and it looks neater. I'll spare you my wrinkly slightly-poo-covered notes (you wish I was joking) and show you the final product, which has taken on a life of it's own. Don't let this next one's girth scare you, just follow the happy green bubbles and look for words you recognize nearby (warning, big - )
So poast your notes - school notes, post-it notes, notebooks, notepads, love notes, music notes, whatever notes you have!
