To be quite frank, I almost never outline my papers. I find it inhibits my thinking and creativity while writing. However, I definitely see the value in it and organizing your thoughts. If you are writing a 1,000 page book, for example, a rough outline might come in handy. When I do outline I usually do so with paper and pen. In most cases, though, I organize my thoughts by thinking. Maybe this isn't very efficient but when I do outline I usually find it doesn't help much or I don't even use the outline (which is probably my own fault).
