For me, personally, i like to take notes by hand. I feel that I write faster than i type, and it means more to me to write it (see it, write it, say it). I am a spatial learner, so being able to draw pictures or graphs quickly to go along with my notes is very valuable to me.

Often when I have an assigment that I need to read online, I end up printing it out so that I can take notes on it or highlight it, and it's easier for me to read and comprehend that way.

I do agree, however, with your point about being able to spell check and share the notes, and especially reducing the clutter that so many papers causes.

Thanks so much for your enlightening article!
