I think this is about the first one I've ever done (unless I did one for Novacon and forgot, or you count the newbie's guide I wrote, which is sort of a multi-convention meta-report).
Half the reason I spent most of the con carrying a bag or a batbelt was to keep my superfluous tech on me, thereby allowing me to jot things down whenever I had a spare minute. These were really brief notes (e.g. "choice of cider") intended more as mnemonics than anything else. Over the weekend, I racked up about a dozen such scribbles. Then I just expanded each one up to a sentence or two (or a bit more in a couple of cases), trimmed a couple of boring ones, added a couple of other things that came to mind, and that was it.
If I tried to write anything much longer, I'd probably have an apathy attack and end up not writing anything much at all, but the brief form suits me well :)
