About this episode
Joël and Sally compare various note taking styles as they set out to find which ones work best for them.
The pair break down the different ways of formatting their notes and what they’re used for, Sally explains her struggles with note taking in general and the work arounds she’s found to achieve similar results instead, and Joël provides a small update on his book as he examines the different use cases for all his notes.
