Another vote for "write things down on a piece of paper". I've tried the Outlook calendar. But it's too much of a hassle to open Outlook, go to the calendar, pick a date, etc. just to enter a few words. So that'd last about half a day before I quit bothering with it.
Typing things into Notepad and saving it as a file on my desktop works well, as I always see them and think "hmm, I haven't checked out 'JAN 23 NOTES' since I made it originally, wonder what's in there?".
But the best way I've found is a good old fashioned pen and paper. For whatever reason the act of writing it down makes me remember things better, even if the paper's not in front of me. I'll think about a given project, then think "oh yeah, I wrote some notes about that in the bottom right corner of that paper on my desk with the coffee stain on it, below the doodle I made." and then I can remember just about everything I jotted down.
