I have personally always found that the act of conscious note-taking is more important than the ability to search afterwards.

I generally take notes on paper and very rarely look at them afterwards.

I am wondering, are you selective on what you take notes too or just take lots of notes? I.e. do you take lots of notes in meetings and every website/paper/book you are reading?

Personally?

I note down some thoughts or tasks every day and carry a journal around for that.

I usually get more value out of (work) meetings if I do take notes. I usually take notes but prefer not to if I'm chairing/leading the meeting.

I rarely take notes on what I have read, unless it's something I am actively learning.
