Emacs - Switch to new notes buffer

bufs.el

(defun new-scratch-buffer-new-window ()
  "Create a new scratch buffer in a
  new window. I generally take a lot of notes
  in different topics. For each new topic hit
  C-c C-s and start taking your notes.
  Most of these notes don't need to be
  saved but are used like quick post it
  notes."
  (interactive)
  (let (($buf (generate-new-buffer "notes")))
    (split-window-right)

Awesome! Straight into my Emacs configuration!

Maybe activate org-mode ?? Here is my fork :D

You could just use pop-to-buffer:

(defun new-scratch-buffer-new-window ()
  "Create a new scratch buffer in a
  new window. I generally take a lot of notes 
  in different topics. For each new topic hit
  C-c C-s and start taking your notes. 
  Most of these notes don't need to be 
  saved but are used like quick post it 
  notes."
  (interactive)
  (let ((buf (generate-new-buffer "notes")))
    (pop-to-buffer buf)
    (balance-windows)
    buf))
