What Happens to Those Conference Notes?


Many of us just returned from the Alabama Educational Technology Conference. Many will shortly be leaving for ISTE. As you look around during sessions, people are taking notes. In recent years, more and more are taking notes on laptops. This year, tablets were in abundant supply.

Now the conference is over. You have stepped back into "your life." So where are those conference notes right now? What will happen to them over the next few days? The next few months? The next few years?

Whether you attended AETC or any other conference, I am interested in your "system."

What do you you use to take your notes? How and where do you organize them later so that set of notes becomes part of your total package? What's your mechanism for sharing your notes with others? The more detailed you can be, the more it can help other readers with their own systems.

Like anything I think is worth keeping, it goes into my Evernote account. Usually I break it down into a folder for the conference, meeting, event, etc. and then tag the actual note properly by content.
