Cornell Notes

I know. I drone on about digital notes and apps like Obsidian and DEVONthink. But, I also love writing on paper. I always have. I was the weird kid in high school using graph paper to take notes and it’s not much different today.

My preferred style of note is the Cornell method. I learned this by accident in college. Through trial and error I started dividing my pages into the the primary note body and the meta data sections and then I discovered that there’s actually paper designed for this purpose.

Today I purchased a bunch of Levenger Luxe legal evidence pads. These look gorgeous. I typically roll with http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KOABW2Q/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=duckwing-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399373&creativeASIN=B00KOABW2Q and manually divide up my pages but adding the guide lines will just make everything easier.

It also strikes me that this might be one of the biggest problems I have with plain text file formats. I like margins.
