I never really write down text much, it is always diagrams, squigles, a graph, a formula.
There is always a stack of legal size papers (about 20 or so) on my desk right in front of my keyboard. I write on it as a sort of a quick scratchbook of what I am thinking or to organize things and concept that don't fit in my brain. Looking back at the used pages, I see a bunch of circles connected with lines for example, as I was trying to figure out a good topology for process dependencies, stuff like that. I could not find anything digital that approximates the pen+paper responsiveness, ease of use and resolution.
Also looking back 3 days ago, I actually cannot even figure out what my squigles mean, they had their purpose at the time, but it was a very short term purpose. For me it is more of a swap-device-like system than a permanent storage.
