You will need to keep pretty accurate notes, because even the encounters or plot points you may have pre-planned will require fleshing out in the midst of the moment... players will remember that one tidbit that you threw out and forgot to write down.
Solution: TiddlyWiki - a reusable non-linear personal web notebook

Awesome. If you keep a laptop at the table (or would be willing to), spending 10 minutes after a gaming session entering the NPCs and plothooks you generated during the session into this wiki means never having to forget again. Great search features. Make sure to make uses of the tags.

If you use multiple computers, keep the wiki file in your DropBox folder.

Dropbox - Home - Secure backup, sync and sharing made easy.
