If I ever get a new job, I buy a new, empty (obviously) notebook, and take notes. I love the tactility of real paper for that. I'm ooold, I suppose. After a while I will always notice that, while I keep bringing the notebook to meetings, I just don't really make notes anymore. Typically someone is assigned to make minutes (and we're being very agile about that too, different subject). And beyond that, the gist of meetings typically doesn't require me to have a written record, so it just goes in the big ol' brain (it just adds to my existing understanding of our company, our system or the problem domain). I'm sure that won't work for everyone...<p>Something that I <i>do</i> need to keep track of is personal to do's, sometimes driven by personal interest, so these don't necessarily end up in the minutes, so I often walk out of meetings with one or a few Post-It's. All our meeting rooms have a decent stack of Post-It's and Sharpies. I incorporate later those in whatever online task list is most appropriate (team JIRA, some other backlog, personal to do list), unless I can resolve them immediately.
