Yep. Often, I'm just writing down what people are saying to help me stay engaged. The resulting notes would need a lot of organization afterwards to make them useful, but paying attention in the moment is the main point.
Yes! I recently took notes for a meeting to later put into a set of actions, but was then surprised by a pair from the meeting who wanted me to scan quick copies of my notes so they could get started quickly. Ugh! My notes are for my brain, and do not translate well lol.
