There's nothing more frustrating for me than seeing an error I've seen before and not remembering how I fixed it last time.
I try to remember and search for the error message, just to find and read the same articles and posts again or watch the same videos.
I wrote my first blog post on my website in 2010 to document my learning for myself and to share with others.
I've also been a keen note taker, using tools like Evernote and others to take notes and write documentation for myself to refer to in the future.
These days, I just write plain text files using Nick Janetakis' notes program, which I've modified slightly by patching it to create daily notes instead of monthly ones.
They're fast to write, easy to search and available offline if I'm traveling or away from my computer.
I much prefer being able to search my notes and find what I'm looking for or, if it's a post that I've written publicly, searching online and finding my own answer.
Whether you're a new or experienced Developer, you're always learning new things, so write them down for yourself and, if you want, write publicly and share your learnings with others.
