Same. Over 20 years (note taking especially) it is reduced to scribbles. The value of it is the time thinking while writing it mostly, though todo's are longer lived.

If your todo list is, or needs to be long lived, I think you might have more problems :D

I make notes on paper as the act of writing makes it stick about in my head longer than it would if I typed typing them out; though similar to you there's better penmanship from a spider that fell in ink.

Long lived may be tomorrow/a few days :-) And struck through. And written at any angle on the paper. Definitely not a codified method for me.
