Let us now praise Post-it notes
Merlin Mann | Apr 18 2005
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

Ha ha, Jeremy. Yes, I sort of agree. I started using the "hipster pda" for club business (pres. of club @ school) and for class reminders and work reminders. The problem was I never looked at them. Post-its can go anywhere. In my binder, on my wall, in my clairefontaine (yes, I know, not a moleskine). I have a system that works perfectly: see-it --> do it! » POSTED IN:
