A simple thing I do for taking notes
Category Journal Shortcut
I'm somebody that very rarely uses the Windows Start button, most of the applications I launch are found in my quick launch bar. Something I use heavily is my Notes journal for quickly jotting down ideas, or cut and pasting something useful. I like the free form style and with the Notes search I can easily find previous documents that I created, it kind of ties into the way my mind works (and how my desk looks) just a huge pile of stuff but I can still quickly find what I'm looking for. Sometimes, and I know some people will find this hard to believe I am not in the Notes client but I still want quick access to create a new Journal entry. I do this by having a shortcut on my quick launch bar. The shortcut contents are nothing more than a Notes URL, for a new document in the journal, the URL is:
notes://DominoServerName/journal.nsf/JournalEntry?OpenForm
That's it, nothing else to it. So whenever I am reading something useful, or just quickly want to jot down an idea I just click the link, fill in some notes and hit save and go back to what I was doing.
