How to Take Notes During Your Meeting Without Pen and Paper

Lately I’ve been in meeting after meeting, and my notepad is swollen from all the information. While I prefer putting pen to paper to get my thoughts down, I realized that I’m creating more work for myself. If you’re the meeting organizer you’ll typically take notes and summarize it in a follow-up email to all attendees. You’ll notice most people don’t drag a computer with them to meetings, some don’t have the luxury of a work laptop. But if you are equipped with a portable work station try out this great website that lets you take notes while in the meeting, and you can send directly out afterward.

The site is minutes.io. Here are some of the great features that’ll make taking notes a breeze:

  • Easy interface allows you can type while others are speaking.
  • Fill out tasks that need to be delegated to members of the group and send them out.
  • Publish your summaries and tasks instantly with private links.
  • Produce custom summaries to individuals in the meeting.
  • No internet connection is necessary! The meeting notes are locally stored.

It’s another way to be green in your office, and the efficiency is something your boss and everyone can appreciate.
