How do you use Journals

[htown]

I have a very large contact database that I have been keeping up with for years. For the last few years I have been in the habbit o putting the notes of conversations and even document links int he the notes section of the Contact form. Is the journal a better place for this? Does anyone use the Journal function in Outlook?



I would like to hear how you use it or how you keep notes about your customers/clients using outlook.

Many thanks,
