I mostly organise things digitally nowadays, but I did start using Traveler’s Notebook recently for scratch notes and “mind lists”.

Taking quick notes is just so much better and faster when you just jot it down, in my opinion.

And the “mind lists” I keep really help me to commit new concepts to my memory more efficiently. Basically, I keep a list of concepts / fancy words I encounter when reading books, Wikipedia etc, and then periodically revisit them to try and recall what they mean. Makes a world of different for my ability to remember things, as it’s not getting any better with age sadly.

I guess the point I’m trying to make is that you can do both: keep some things digitally while still have a meaningful and functional use case for fountain pens :)
