Wirebound artists sketch pads. Usually the store brand from Office Depot or Staples or wherever I pick up a fresh batch. I carry at least one of these things and box of colored pencils, plus a couple of drafting pencils, with me most of the time for quick doodling and sketching out ideas and what-not.

Just got some Rhodia dot grid paper (http://rhodiapads.com/collections_boutique_dotPad.shtml) to sketch out layouts and icons and I love it. For brainstorming and general chaos organization, I use iThoughtsHD. If I ever run into a bump in the road, I highly recommend the free and beautiful Unstuck iPad app.

moleskine, which is kind of weird though if you think about it: any other sketchbook is likely to be a magnitude cheaper and would for me probably suffice the purpose of doodling/sketching just as well. I do catch myself subconsciously factoring this in when sketching/doodling though by using the paper surface more errr... economically ;-) The best reason I could think of is the leather cover; it holds amazingly well in my overly packed backpack :)

I can never commit to a book of blank paper. So when I find scraps of paper, like receipts or a page to tear out of something, I write everything on those and staple them together as I go so I'm not carrying around excess weight and it fits in my pocket. And I'm always sure to have free, ugly paper surfaces to fill with my ugly writing for the rest of my life.
