Do you keep track of things on the computer or with paper and pen?

I use both handwritten notes and my phone app.
I use my notes app to make grocery lists and a to-watch (for movies/tv) list. I have pads of paper in my desk that I use for writing down random things and have to go thru the drawer every now and again and sort thru the papers to purge old info I no longer need. I have a binder on my desk, where I write down all my CT requirements.

I use both - I also have reminders on my phone. Last year, I decided I needed to go back old school and got a paper calendar to write things on.
Funny you should post this as I went to grab a notepad yesterday and found out that I am totally out of them. So I printed these ones out from Manu Designs and made my own. I write everything down on paper, old habits are hard to break. I do use my phone app once in awhile, but prefer to use paper. These are great to use and so easy to make all you need is some heavy cardstock for the backing and some Elmers glue and they peel off just like the store bought ones. I made mine a bit longer than normal, I always find that there just isn't enough room for all that I need to put on my grocery list LOL.

For the past few years I have used Sticky Notes app on my laptop, and Notes app on my phone. I can view Notes on the laptop via iCloud, but its an extra step so I just use the Sticky Notes. When I'm done its easy to delete them. 
And the Notes on my phone is where grocery/shopping lists are. I like being able to delete items as they are picked up, and also share them with hubster as we have always done grocery shopping together.
I haven't done away with paper all together though- I use a paper Creativity Planner for my Art biz. I have noticed that my handwriting isn't what it used to be because I am doing so much digitally!

Love this!
I use paper, computer, and my phone. And yet, I *still* mess things up and/or forget them. 
I live for my To-Do lists and have a large planner as a Central Command. Then I use Google Calendar and Reminders on my phone/computer. That's connected to the Time Tree App. My family shares that calendar so we can have some idea of who is going to be where and when. Doesn't always work when someone (*coughs* DH) doesn't look at it or someone (*coughs* DS) forgets to update it.

It depends.... little bits or to-do things I write on post-its... but longer project lists and those I might need to have with me on the go (e.g. shopping lists, Xmas presents bought in advance, points to mention when meeting XYZ) - those are in OneNote synced to my iPhone and iPad
