	Org mode is very amenable to multiple solutions to a problem, so I'm 
not sure there's a "right way".

	As Matt suggested, perhaps you could explain a bit more as to your 
requirements: What information needs to be saved, how you would like it 
organized, and what things do you often need to refer to when looking in 
your logs later on. Or give us an idea how you've been doing it in your 
text file.
