Thanks it helped a lot. Except I mainly want it for math and I'm not going to put things like negative exponents and things of that nature in the box

nice video man.;-)

[littlebitofeverythin]

Some people are so rude. Try to ignore the rude comments. What a great idea. Great explanation. I liked the detail you gave. This gives me a lot to work with as I take notes in a lot of different capacities. Thank you.

what I find interesting is that you bought and wore a new shirt right out of the pack just to make this video... did you get fired?

[tomfalcon117]

Thx a lot, is very useful

[Swrtzjstn12]

Basically, you put a summary in the box?

[nboukaram]

this is like the cornell method

[northishgroup]

that is a really great little 1-2 minute idea, with a somewhat rambling 4 minute explanation. great idea - thanks!

[GosseBosma]

simple, intuitive, elegant.

[DeadLkeMe]

Nice. Thanks a lot.

[jasprout]

Thank you very much :D!

[glennn69]

thanks! now i can tell if somebody is a virgin or not just by looking at his notes!!!

[ReggsDS]

I think we would get along well because I use graph paper too! Do you ever doodle when you take notes? I confine myself to the lines of the paper, so my doodling comes out looking like something made on an etch a sketch.

Thank you very much! This system has really expanded my post-meeting analysis. I've also expanded on your technique by adding an extra box in the lower left hand corner to record random thoughts unrelated to the subject of my meetings (such as what others are wearing or the types of pens they use, etc). Though somewhat recently I've been considering using a rhombus because my style of note analysis may be described as oblong or semi-circular. What are your thoughts on other shapes?
