Digital Notes VS Handritten Notes
Digital Notes VS Handritten Notes
For productivity purpose, the digital evolution of the work environment and tools have brought undeniable advantages and brings together the physical and digital world.
Digital Notes
- Typing out notes improves later recall.
- You might lose all your data
- Use a note taking app
- Record so you never miss anything
- Save time
Handwritten Notes
- The main problem with handwritten notes lays in the use you make of it afterwards.
- Most of the time in business, notes are a mean to transfer an information from a source to another entity, which is time-consuming and less productive.
- Remembering conceptual information over the long term
- Helps memorize information
Therefor, even the best tablet tools can not exactly replicate the feel of pen on paper. If you prefer note taking but want the benefits of digital notes, I recommend a smartpen which are promising connected objects.
Life Hacks, Tips and Tricks on Digital Notes
“Note-taking! I just love note-taking! I get to use a Pentel G-Tec-C .28mm pen, or a Pilot G–2 07 pen with blue-black ink and carefully take notes in a Moleskine large, notebook. It’s heaven!

I instantly grabbed onto the practice of “ubiquitous capture” by taking notes so I wouldn’t let as many things fall through the cracks….”
“The story of Moleskine reveals the challenges of keeping a traditional product relevant in an era of quickly evolving digital technology.“The market of people that need, in one way or another, tools to express their ideas, is growing very, very fast,” says Arrigo Berni, chief executive of Moleskine SpA, the Milan-based company that now makes Moleskine notebooks. “A piece of this market is being taken over by digital devices…”
“It’s become popular to claim that writing notes on paper and reading from paper books are superior ways to learn, and that laptops and other technology are a distraction for students in the classroom. But is this true?”
“If you walk into any lecture these days, you see a majority of students staring at their screens. You hear a never-ending chorus of pounding keys. Yes, we live in digital age and I bet you can’t imagine not using your laptop for studying. Yes, laptops enable you to do more academic work and do it more efficiently. You can collaborate more easily on presentations and papers, get instant access to numerous libraries and sources online and take a huge amount of notes as you probably belong to the majority that types faster than they write…”
