Alan Levine wonders about all the note-taking. " I found myself wondering about the effectiveness of pretty much half? three quarters? of the audience individually taking notes, essentially more or less the same content. Those notes then go back to various silos, files, buried folders on computers. It seems on on level a huge missed opportunity in collaboration, and super redundant of people's energy." On the one hand, yes, there's a lot of content that could and should be shared. On the other hand, the real value of the notes happens at the moment of the taking of the note - that's when you're engaged with the presentation and working it through in your own mind. But yes, the notes help other people later, and should be shared.
