What's the Best Way to Keep Notes of a Track?

I like to make a note of singers name, what mic, chain, date, and maybe other specific things when I'm recording a track.  I usually type that info into the track "name" which is the very small area that defaults to "Track 1, Track 2, etc".  As far as I know there is no "notes" section in Platinum.  Am I wrong?  If I'm not, then how do you guys do it?  Yes, the track name works but it's a PITA to type in and especially to edit.

I do what Bobf says. Track inspector and description box. Ideal for individual track notes.
