Norm:
How can someone best get started with their own second brain setup? Is it effective to use Google Docs for notes, perhaps with calendar events for quick mobile notes? Does logging reflections daily improve actual memory, or is its value primarily in accessibility?

Martin L:
Does Robb tend to have a note per subject?

How does Robb automatically back up his Evernote data to Google Drive and Dropbox?

Scott:
How does Robb automatically sync his backup notes?
