Atoma = Circa = Rollabind?

Is anone here familiar with Atoma notebooks? They are ring-bound and look like the Levenger Circa or Rollabind notes I've seen. What I don't know is if the punchouts are the same shape and spacing. The University bookstore here sells Atoma (notebooks, address books, refills, and yes, even index cards) and I bought a notebook on impulse.

What I'd really like to do is get a Circa or Rollabind punch, if it fits, and make my own refills, maybe with DIYPlanner templates some of the time.

Anyone know about these Atoma products and whether they play well with the others?

Unfortunately, just notebooks and refills....

I've ordered a rollabind punch, as the whole setup seems kind of pointless without one (why would I use their paper? I can't print DIY planner templates or calligraphy rules on it!). Because of cost I ordered the portable one, which looks like it might be kind of time-consuming to use on lots of sheets of paper, but I'll let you all know how it goes.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
