The question is simply one of how do you record what you do when doing bioinformatic analyses? The classical paper laboratory notebook clearly can't adapt well to scripts and programs and the sometimes massive output files.
I currently keep track of what I do using simple (but perhaps primitive) HTML documents, since I can link to output files and images easily, and insert tables, or when necessary sub-pages. I don't need much formatting, so I like this for its simplicity (<ul> is my friend). And then I can share password-protected pages with others.
However, I feel that there might be better ways to do this, so what do other people use?
