Practices for capturing short important thoughts

Published: 05 April 2003 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we describe a user study designed to understand current practices for recording and utilizing information in everyday life. We describe a subset of the results that suggest that improving on current practices will require physical and digital artifacts, flexibility, multi-modality, and ubiquity.
