With so much note taking apps nowadays, I can’t understand why does anyone still write notes with pen and paper. You need to bring the notepad, book or that paper to retrieve that information, and most of the time you don’t have it in hand. While my phone almost always reachable and you carry when you go out. For those still like to do handwriting, there’s many app does that and they can even convert it to text notes.

So, if you still write notes with pen and paper, why?

      I don’t run out of pens because I record meetings with my phone or computer and get Otter AI to transcribe them. I already own a phone so it’s even cheaper than a pen or a notebook. And, here’s a pro tip, I keep it charged and have a power bank.

        How is a phone cheaper than a pen? Electricity isn’t free, sure charging them is a fraction of cent but still, every time you charge either or both, someone is paying for it.

            If you already own a pen, a notebook and a phone you can stop caring about what other people think and just be efficient in note taking.
