INCD021When are you using pen and paper, and when do you use a note-taking app? Or do you always stick to one or the other? And why?
I try to take as many notes directly in Obsidian, but I like pen and paper so much more. However, I also know I'll be writing the paper notes into Obsidian, which means more work.

Standing on the Corner - Reflections Upon Garry Winogrand's Photographic Gaze - Mirror of Self or World? Part II (1991)
Whenever I see it, I immediately hear a voice singing, "Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by." Yes, it is a sexist work. But that is a fact about Winogrand we must face and accept, if we are to honestly assess his picture-making. Part II (This is the second of a two-part essay on

Don't hesitate to change methods. A new approach might work better.
Note-taking depends on the source or initial state of the project.Sometimes you might start with a mind map if the topic is unclear, use existing information if it's an established project, or even create a list of tasks.

CoffeeGeekWoo hoo - the Samsung "Notepaper" matt writing cover arrived today for my Samsung S9 FE.
I would like to move more towards digitally writing my notes during product tests and reviews. Hopefully this helps, as it "simulates" the feel of writing on paper with a pen, and also turn the display into a matt finish.
A few notes:
- Very confusing as to whether this Samsung S9 Notepaper cover would work with the FE or not. Samsung officially says no. But redditors etc said yes
- It DOES work 100% fine with the S9 FE model. The tablet recognizes the screen when you attach it magnetically (asks you to change a sensitivity setting), and it fits perfectly.
Let's go!

13 years later, my addiction to paper notebooks is worst than ever. I feel the need to write a more complete document about this.
