Which extension do you use? The last time I looked there were no good solutions for IR with Anki.
I used a version previously only found on github, but which apparently a couple of days ago was updated on the official anki extension page:

It's still not perfect, and I would love if all the bugs were worked out, but I've been using it for a few months and the benefit of being able to remember everything important that I read more than outweighs the cost of dealing with occasional bug.
We all deal with a lot of information. What are your strategies of taking notes for new information?
Do you take any notes on paper? If so do you scan them or otherwise digilatize them?
Do you have specific strategies for deciding which information to write down?
How do you write notes to capture all important information?
Do you tag your notes?
If you use Evernote, or a similar system how private are your notes? Would you allow friends to read in them? Your spouse?
