-** Scratch buffer
-Turn off the startup buffer because I prefer [[Dashboard]], and write into
-the scratch buffer some nice information about Emacs.
+** Startup screen
+The default startup screen is quite bad in all honesty, great for
+first time users who have no idea what is going on but terrible for
+regular users.
+
+The scratch buffer is an interaction buffer made when Emacs is first
+started, as a way to quickly prototype Emacs Lisp code.  When startup
+screen is disabled, this buffer is the first thing presented on boot
+for Emacs.  So we can use it to store some useful information.
+
+As I use [[*Org mode][org-mode]] to compile my Emacs, it is available
+essentially at startup, so I use it for the scratch buffer.  That way,
+I can use all the abilities of org-mode (particularly writing a system
+of code using =#+RESULTS=) in an ephemeral buffer at startup!

 Applications are greater than packages; they provide a set of
 functionality to create an interface in Emacs.  Emacs comes with
 applications and others may be installed.

 Dashboard creates a custom dashboard for Emacs that replaces the
 initial startup screen in default Emacs.  It has a lot of customising
 options.
+
+Unfortunately not that useful, many things are easier to invoke
+directly such as recent files or project changing.
