This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

My binder is green and goes by the name Evernote. It lives on my laptop, my tablet, my phone, and any desktop with an Internet connection. It's searchable and I can bookmark it too.

I use Evernote. It has a Mac native app and I can access the info pretty much anytime, anywhere, on any computer/tablet/phone. If I'm sitting at the park watching the kids, and inspiration strikes, I can call up my campaign notes and add to them with no trouble.

I'm particularly fond of the Web Clipper feature that allows me to send web content directly to my account.

I have a stack of Composition books that are full of campaign notes.  Each book has a different campaign.
I got started doing that when I was playing Earthdawn and keeping record of what happened, and the comp. book was a better place to keep all the records together then loose leaf papers stuck in my rule book.

each one is 200 pages or so and if you get them at an office supply store you can usually get 3 for a buck or so.

Check out dollar stores- a bunch of them sell those composition books for $1 a piece.

yah and check wallmart for the back to school rush you can get a comp book for like 60 cents

Yeah I can't recommend those composition notebooks enough.  I use them as scratch pads for my game.  Very stream of consciousness.  Whatever idea survives long enough to claw its way onto the page, or a problem that needs to get puzzled out, goes in the notebook.  Once it's matured, it goes into an Evernote file.

I'm currently starting my 6th notebook for my Witch Hunter campaign.

I even created a GM Aid to paste onto the inside covers of these. 1 part rules aid, 1 part idea generator.  I'm currently working on one for the B/X D&D game I'm running for teens at my local library.

But the best part about them is they sit nicely on a bookshelf once you are done with them.  MUCH better than spiral notebooks.

In case anyone is interested, my finished B/X GM Notebook reference labels are ready for prime time.  I've incorporated some material from the 1st and 5th edition DMGs to give it some extra oomph!

Enjoy!  Hope they help!

Hi,

Excellent work. I downloaded them up and will be using them in my Tekumel campaign. I particularly like the Marching Order sheet.
