Taking notes the Cornell way

It’s about time someone redesigned notetaking, which is famously bad all around. Most of us have reinforced bad notetaking habits all the way from high school and college and have kept on and on and on. It’s not like there’s a book for it, and even if there was, what would you do? Take bad notes.

So, Cornell has its own named method of notetaking now. I mention this because it was listed on lifehacker recently. Read it. Live it.

And, in completely unrelated news, my TiBook’s (c. 2001) hard drive, a seemingly quiet and innocuous Seagate Momentus, I believe, went down again yesterday while applying an update and simultaneously doing some P2P work. Frankly, having replaced the logic board myself, I think it’s time to fieldstrip the little bugger and sell it off as parts. Bye bye Little Sheba. Probably replace it with a MacMini, I’m thinking.
