Subject: Annotate during, after, or both?

Message:
I really like the feature that you can annotate your games DURING play..but I wanted to get an opinion if people think its better to annotate after the game instead...perhaps your head is a bit clearer and you can see more of what your opponent was up rather than what your next best move might be? (I know, I know, I should be doing BOTH those things during the game!) The possible downside is that annotating after the game, you might think "Why did I make that move?"...thoughts?

Why not both

Message:
You know more after the game. But might forget something important if you don't note it down at the time.

Personally I tend to annotate months later as it takes me a long time to decide if I liked a game, but I probably lose something unless it was during a very serous time and i had reams of subvariations and such.

Its added spice is the rivalry at the top of the world chess rankings between Anand, Norway's 20-year-old Magnus Carlsen, and Russia's ex-champion and current world No4, Vlad Kramnik. The global chess body, Fide, still hopes to persuade Carlsen to rescind his withdrawal from the May 2011 candidates matches and has announced a new date of 22 December for contract signing. How he performs in London, just a week before the contract deadline, may affect the talks and whether he can take ...
