How and why do you take notes? (self.askbeehaw)

Kind of a broad question. I wonder why people take notes - Is it for studies or learning? Is it just to remember things? Is it to make your own map of your knowledge? Is it because you just want a place to vent out your feelings into the void?

What do you use to accomplish that? App? Paper? A chat room?

I have to take notes on paper, or it's completely out of my head. Phone, computer, etc is so ingrained in my day-to-day it becomes lost in an afterthought, so physically jotting stuff down engages my brain in a different (arguably better, for me) way.
