Anyone make notes while reading GTD?

I was curious if anyone made notes, wither on the margins, or in a seperate notebook while reading the book? I made notes in a small journal and I also wrote key parts under my memo pad on my Palm. And I just finished (I mean in the last 48 hours) the book so i find myself referring to them constantly. There are still "odds and ends" that I need to work out. Did you find it a bit "rough" in the begining and then it smoothed itself out?

I made notes, too

I made notes when I read GTD -- probably when I read it the second time. For me, it was mostly a way to pick out the particularly meaningful bits for later reading and reflection.

Though I didn't reflect on them much. I've probably read the book again a couple of times since then.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
