Print stuff.

Its like multiple monitors, except its cheaper. Like $0.05 a page. A lot of paper-style documentation is still a gross force mutiplier, even in the age of multiple monitors.

Learn to use paper tools to create booklets that are useful to you. I like 2-hole punch (2.75" US Standard) and comb binders. Spending a few minutes honing your paper documentation for your current task can make you grossly faster.




This! A printout of the Paredit reference card [1] taped near my monitor is the only way I was able to learn it.
