Hi all

im currently in Basel in a Academic conference and was thinking how one
would "absorb" all the torrents of ideas/data/images/conversations quickly
into org mode :) does any one have any real life experience with this? do
you use mobile-org or that, or another method?
i have an andorid phone/tablet and a laptop as well so i was wondering if
any one had any ideas?

in a perfect world i would use my tablet to capture text etc and phone to
capture images/posters/quick ideas and have them all automatically sync to
my org mode file but i know that wishful thinking

best

Mostly I do it with mindmaps.

Either directly on paper using the bic 4 color ballpoint pen [1]

Otherwise use org-mode and then export it into freemind C-c C-e m
(org-export-as-freemind)

I have seen that Vym (view your mind) has a experimental export function
to org-mode. I have never tested it though.


Best,
Giammi

I am using my MobileOrg (Android) to quickly[1] add short notes and
URLs (share with ... MobileOrg) to myself while being on the road. 

I think that there is no easy/quick way of adding other data than
simple test to Org-mode on the phone.

However, I always return with lots of new headings in my inbox.org
from events like research conferences and such :-)
