I for one am pretty strict about maintaining an accurate log book.
I got out of the habit of logging them on paper and then when I was uploading my dives into my PC I found it hard to remember the sites, etc... so now I just write in the pertinent info like the date, site name, weight, starting & ending pressures and most importantly dive buddy!
I have been on trips where they have wanted to see an updated log book to assess your abilities. As a DM who has taken divers from out of town on dives it is always nice to review their log book to make sure they have the experience to competently complete the dive - I will always extend the same courtesy to others when unfamiliar with the sites.
