How I capture fleeting notes
If I'm at my computer, I capture with org-capture in [[Emacs]]. They go into an Inbox
org file.
If I'm somewhere else, I capture into [[orgzly]] on my phone. Either using orgzly's quick note capture via the new note permanent notification, or via a share from another app (e.g. highlighted text).
These go into my Inbox Mobile
org file.
I process those notebooks regularly. Things that are 'things to do' I move to somewhere else in my org files. Fleeting notes that are relevant to my outer garden I move them to a Fleeting notes
org file. This stops them clogging up my todo system.
Then periodically I'll go through the fleeting notes file and process them. I might add them to today's journal page, or straight into a reference note in the garden, or maybe even straight into a main note.
