Rachel Smith at MacWorld 2012 : Visual Note-taking on the iPad

I take notes using my iPad -- in a very visual way. Using images as
well as text, I draw the notes using my fingertip and a drawing
application like Sketchbook Pro or Brushes. These slides supported my
Tech Talk at Macworld|iWorld 2012 about this special kind of
note-taking. See more examples of my work on Flickr:
