How do you keep track of your personal projects and ideas?

If you come up with this amazing idea how do you write it down? Notepad? Some text file somewhere?

How do you track your progress,etc?

I'm not talking about FogBugz,etc as they are for tracking team work, I'm talking about tracking my ideas and projects and any associated content (notes,screenshots,etc)

Can you put your solution on a thumb drive?

Any suggestions for other developers?

First of all, this is not the generic 'make me a better programmer' question, even though the outcome of asking this question might seem similar to it. On programmers.SE, I've read and seen these get closed here, here, here, here, and here. We all know there are a multitude of generic suggestions… >>> More

A colleague of mine wrote a post a while ago asking Do you own your tools. It raises an important question. Do you? I answered way down in the comments. As an independent, I do own my tools. Even when I wasn't independent, I had my own (fully licensed) tools that I used for personal development. I… >>> More
