There's a lot of people here stating that notes help them retain material. Maybe that works for some people, but it doesn't work for me.
I find myself more likely to forget things when I write them down, especially in a meeting/lecture/discussion. Maybe it's just because my hand just doesn't go fast enough to get the information down on the page, or maybe I can't concentrate on thinking at the same time I write.

Ah very interesting. What about in a situation where you aren't rushed? Say you're learning/studying/hacking something on your computer and came across something worth remembering or committing to memory?
