I have a note book here next to the computer. I write down fabric and pattern info from this forum as well as info from the online stores who send updates every week -- Over the Rainbow and Hancocks of Paducah, to name just two.
It's a great way to remember patterns and fabrics that strike my fancy.

Yes, I do a notebook also, tips from here and shops that have been recommended and places I order from or want to try.
In fact I'm so forgetful any more (senior moments!) that I record phone calls, made to especially utility people, and what we discussed. Since we are moving ourselves from Iowa to Nebraska and work needed to be done on each place I have a "transition" notebook that tells me what has been moved and what has been done where! Helps keep me sane. :)

My "notebook" is a Word document. That way when I find a site I want to save I just copy & paste the address (less chance of me writing it down incorrectly). An added bonus -I can just click on the link in the document & go straight to the site.
