My cell phone has become my note taker. It was a cumbersome process in the beginning as I would watch my son or another young person type on theirs faster than I can on the computer. I still can't type anywhere near that quickly on my phone. It's one fat finger button pushed at a time. But the note function is too good to pass up. Still have a field book but I don't make drawings of stones, I take pictures with the phone, I don't write done notes I type them into a file and send it to the cloud, import those directly into my Corner Records. 

What made it way more useful is when I finally figured out the note app on the I-phone does so much more than allow you to type out the note. It's a scanner and the best thing is it's a dictation secretary. I can simply speak into it instead of typing out details of a corner. 

Such a time saver, scan a document at the courthouse, save it to the cloud, (talk) type a note in a file save that to the cloud.

Does anyone else dictate to the phone, it's a good thing I'm in the field by myself doing it cause it's got to look weird.
