I’ve read McPhee’s description of his own process, and the best dissertation howto book I’ve ever seen (Destination Dissertation) suggests a similar strategy. I’ve found that I have to shift back and forth between electronic and digital filing; one of the best tools I’ve come up with so far has been a little OmniOutliner notetaking document that’ll output elegantly to 3×5 cards. Thanks for bringing this up.
