I had a conversation with one of my buddies who also plays on merge network and we were discussing note taking. i thought I would put my thought out here because I dont know if everyone understand what  type of notes that should be taking on other players. This site (merge) is small enough where good notetaking is a valuable piece of information that you shouldnt be avoiding.
When you take notes, you want to put information in there that will help you everytime you see them. If you just say, well "this guy is a bluffer" that doesnt really help you because next time you play him, he might not be bluffing. You need to take the time to give yourself more context of the situation, when does he bluff? Was it a continuation bet? Did he fire 2-3 bullets? or did he stop betting when he got called. This is much more valuable information.
Also: When you see a player playing from early position, try to see a showdown or go back and look at the hand history. What was he playing under the gun, was it A6 offsuit or some junk like that, or 78 suited or nonstuied, this will give you an idea of what this guy's range is from early position and it will give you a better idea of how he plays. 
Lastly, its always good to take a look at sharkscope or something and put notes about wether he is a winning player or not.
