Listening to Seminars

I like to go to seminars and meetings. To me seminars and key-note talks are more worthwhile to go because from those I could hear a full story, while the 20'-30' doesn't really benefit you much in an overview of that specific field, rather than browsing through the result of the speaker's work.

I make notes whatever talks I went to, like when I go to audit a class. David even asked me once if it (making notes) did anything at all, you would forget it anyway if you don't go back. Actually it's very true.

Today I am thinking I should trace up a little bit whatever talks I went to, I mean if they are somehow interesting or let me learn something. I am making a Wiki myself, specific to my interest.

Just make a note for myself to remind me doing that, since I am such a forgetful person. This is what a graduate student should do.
