Visual Note-taking on the iPad

I take notes using my iPad -- in a very visual way. Using images as well as text, I draw the notes using my fingertip and a drawing application like Sketchbook Pro or Brushes. These slides supported my Tech Talk at Macworld|iWorld 2012 about this special kind of note-taking.
