Let us now praise Post-it notes

Phil Gyford has a neat trick, by which he adds a few large Post-it notes to the inside cover of a book he’s starting to read. Handy way to make notes on the go. I’m also a big fan of these removable/re-placeable Avery Write-On tabs, which you can stick in the front cover of your Moleskine or similar notebook. Makes it easy to do the Jerry Brito trick—creating ad hoc sections and shifting the location of your current TODO page, etc. In other news, Amazon should be delivering my copy of Rapid Problem Solving with Post-it Notes tomorrow. Dunno if it’ll be any good, but it does look intriguing and got good reviews. Got a good sticky-note trick to share? Planning? Brainstorming? Contextual notes? 36 Comments

Personally, I am up to my eyeballs in packing to move house. I use color coded post-its for labels on boxes. One color for each room in the new place. I fold them in half and tape them to the edge(top meets front) of the box so one note is visible on both the top and front of the box. Post-its are a great way to label boxes because they can be easily removed to avoid future confusion when the box is reused. » POSTED IN:
