what do you do to take notes as you read?

i usually always underline, but last night i decided to get hi-lighters and hi-lighted up my bio print-outs and now i'm going back to review all the massive amounts of info i was supposed to absorb and all i can think about is "oooh, colors pretty" and i'm completely missing the words sad.gif

anyways, i think i'm gonna go back to underlines and margin notes.

Underlining. It looks more 'clean' in the end. It's also less distracting. I don't understand the people that will switch between every color highlighter to differentiate rank in what's more important. Having one pen or one pencil is less confusing.
