notes on players

I was curious on how many people make notes on players online?What I mean by this is: Pokerstars has the "Note" feature. I'm pretty sure the other sites have a similar feature.Just wondering. Any comments??

I do. If i see something blatantly obvious that will help me in the future, especially in ring games or in a sit n go.. ill write down a little note on them.. like if someone calls me down with bottom pair or with a gutshot or backdoor draw ill write it down. Also a good way to berate someone without anyone knowing you did it. I have yet to join a table with someone and gone "oh, i took notes on him"... so i don't even know if they carry over, or if they are just there temporarily.

actually, they do carry over. its an easy way to categorize T/A, L/P, etc. one quick note and if you ever run into them again, you got a beat on them right away.also will write notes like.... idiot called thru to rvr w/ absolutely nothing. or drew out on me from nothing to 4 card flush.

I believe I read the notes stay on that computer, not on your account.

are you kidding? notes are my lifelines in SNG's and sometimes in cash games. but SNG's is really where the note feature gives me a huge edge.within ten hands, i hope to have at least 5 people categorized in the notes ("TA-A, stay away from him", "TA-P, shies down on turn after raising pre-flop, leading on the flop and getting called... use delayed bluffs against him on turn", "LA-A, auto-bluffs on button when checked to him, trap him for all his chips", "LP-P, calling station, only raises with top pair or better", "TOA-OA, overvalues his low pairs and pushes in when an overcard falls", etc.), and within twenty hands, i hope to have all 9 opponents noted.then, when i'm in a tricky situation, i can REALLY make correct plays against them, and i can't stress enough how much the notes help me.and notes will carry over, but i'm not sure if they'll carry over on another computer.aseem

I use them. Usually a showdown or two will tell me everything I need to know ("Plays anything suited", for instance).
