No journaling technique has ever really stuck with me -- the longest journal I ever kept was the SELF Journal. It's pretty rigid with daily & weekly goals but doesn't require you to use it every day. It also has you start/end the day with something you're grateful for. I tend to use it when tasks are harder to prioritize and I need to add organization to chaos.
I've definitely never successfully kept a digital journal. I need the satisfaction of crossing things off! Most days, I end up scribbling notes on a post-it.
what about note taking in meetings? How would you record that? Of course, every company is different... in my experience in the BigCorp world tends to have too many of those, and keeping notes is important. As Gunnar mentioned, mostly to "cover your ass"

Most of my notes are taken digitally for internal meetings, but I do carry around a pen & notebook for everything else :)
