Taking Notes Horizontally

I recently started taking notes horizontally. By horizontally, I mean turning the paper sideways so that I have more room to write from left to right.

I got this idea a couple of days ago, while in class taking notes.

Aside from being more space efficient, taking notes horizontally, allows one to concentrate more on the instructor as he/she is writing notes on the wide chalkboard(or whiteboard) from left to right. Most instructors don't format whatever they put on the board for vertical efficiency. No, they expect they the student to just stack up information. While there is nothing wrong with just staking information, I say that it makes more sense in the format in which it was presented. In many cases in landscape format.

Note : For taking notes horizontally, I recommend using plain white paper as opposed to lined paper (the one meant for vertical use).
