As a grad student, I keep a research journal. When I have quick ideas to jot down, am working through some math, or am taking notes on a paper or lecture, I write by hand in a dot paper moleskine. I use a red ink pen for notes that need followup, like ideas for new experiments or reminders to learn more about a topic. When I'm working on experiments, I currently take notes in Evernote so that I can easily copy over commands as I run them. However, I have an unfinished project to build a better research notebook solution, that will accommodate faster math notes, based on iPython Notebook. (The main obstacle is my total lack of frontend dev experience.)
