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 mostly write with a keyboard and only the occasional small notes on paper.

I still carry around a small pocket notebook and a pen because it's fun... Also if I see someone parking on a bike lane, I like to leave a note with some colourful language.
