to make note of the commands and switches to use as I'm getting old and
can't remember every switch for every command.

about writing up articles once I've tested everything and storing them as a
blog locally on my Mac to reference during a pentest but this takes time
too. There's plugins for Chrome for the Mac and apps for the iPhone which
sync but I don't want to simply store a link to a website as if I'm onsite
during a test and Internet access isn't permitted then I'm stuffed.

I've started using Evernote for logging things I want to read or watch but
after I've read something technical, if I've played with it and want my own
notes or just want a backup of the article, I use Dokuwiki. Link to the
original, grab copies of any files and either copy paste the whole article
or write up what I need from it. The wiki lives on my laptop so is always
available on tests even when no internet connection.
