Writing in books / Memory tips

When you're studying, do you write notes and summaries in the book you're reading?

I used to avoid that because I hate it when I borrow a book from the library and it's full of notes and underlined paragraphs, but I'm afraid I may have to start doing that to the books I own. I've been reading quite a lot and I'm starting to forget whole books, so I thought writing notes next to the important paragraphs and highlighting the most important sentences could help me remember the stuff I don't want to forget. But, I didn't really want my books to look old and worn out =/

Got any tips to share? What do you usually do?

I have small post it notes like 1/3 the size of a regular sized one. I write on it, and stick it on the page ... usually beside the paragraph that I'm taking notes from.

I write notes for books like I'd write for a lecture, rewriting the important stuff in my own words.

If you're a man in this day and age and you actually care what your post-it looks like....you're pretty hopeless or pathetic.

Use a macbook pro to take your notes. The 2 cores are essential to taking appropriate notes.

Room for more.
250 GB Storage.

MacBook Pro has a standard hard drive up to 250GB and up to 4GB of RAM. So there’s more room for even bigger ideas.
Chips.
Power duo.

The new Intel Core 2 Duo processors run at speeds up to 2.6GHz on a groundbreaking 45-nm process technology with up to 6MB L2 cache. Which means you can encode video, render effects, and open and manipulate large images that much faster. Learn more
Ins and outs.

Connect storage, multimedia devices, and high-speed peripherals to your MacBook Pro. Along the sides, you’ll find a FireWire 400 port, a FireWire 800 port, a DVI port, optical audio in and out ports, and an ExpressCard slot. There are three USB 2.0 ports on the 17-inch MacBook Pro and two on the 15-inch models.
Input and outputs.
Supersized display.

Connect an Apple Cinema Display to expand your desktop and lose nothing in translation. That’s because the DVI connection gives you a pure digital signal from system to display. View more than 4 million pixels on a 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display, powered by the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor.
Cinema Display and MacBook Pro.
MagSafe.
Even the power cord is a feature.

The MacBook Pro power adapter with MagSafe connector is a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So, if you happen to trip over the power cord, you won’t send MacBook Pro flying. The cord simply disconnects, without damage to either the cord or the notebook.
Speaker.
Sounds all around.

MacBook Pro sounds as good as it looks, with unprecedented attention to audio detail. For musicians on the go, MacBook Pro offers pristine sound through crisp, clear stereo speakers, a built-in microphone, and optical digital audio on both input and output.
Built-in iSight.
iChat screenshot.

Strategically placed in the center of the MacBook Pro display bezel is a small but powerful iSight camera. Wherever you go, you can video conference with iChat, make a movie with iMovie, and experiment in Photo Booth.


The Macbook pro will replace pencil and paper within the decade.

Not IN the book I'm reading, but I definitely make notes/summaries of the pertinent information. On top of that our course packs are full of exercises and test questions, and I always do those as well as the stuff in the study guides.

i write stuff on my cellphone, i actually use post-its. but my point is...

invest in a notepad, portable device, multi-purpose phone and you will save yourself the hassle of dealing with pens and paper as a whole.

ever heard of the 'paperless' office?

It's all right, Jenny - Most of the stuff I read is for school
