The Hipskine, bringing LoFi and Tech together
michaelramm | Mar 8 2006
I am not sure where to put this. John West has brought together the HiFi and LoFi worlds in his GTD implementation in his creation of the Hipskine. GTD + Tracks + Moleskine = Hipskine I have read over the article a couple of times and have decided to try to implement this in my GTD lifestyle. I have been using Tracks for about a week and loving it!! I carry 3x5 cards for notes and such (I am a Network Administrator in a 1-man IT department...so I get a lot of "Hey, while your here, could you look at X?") I just have to find a Moleskine 2006 Pocket Daily Planner since the Official USA site is sold out and your only option is to be notified when the 2007 planners come out, and there is no place in Alabama that sells Moleskine. :( I understand that it is not a revolution in thinking in bringing these two things together, but it is an innovation that I think will work for me.

 I am in Tuscaloosa anxiously...Submitted by michaelramm on March 8, 2006 - 10:16am.
I am in Tuscaloosa anxiously awaiting our first B&N (July 2006?!?). There is a B&N in Birmingham, but that is an hour away. If you have never had a Books-a-Million experience, you will never know the pure pain that they inflict on a book-loving public. About 8 years ago, I was looking for Tolkien: The Illustrated Encyclopedia. My BAM did not have one on the shelves, so I proceeded to the counter to order it. After waiting at the counter for almost 10 mins (with various employees moving behind the counter and such), I was able to place my order. "We have some in the warehouse (in Birmingham). We should get in a couple of days." OK, let's do it. I wait a week just to give them time, call them..."No, it is not here." OK...wait another week. "No, we have not gotten it in." Alright. Finally, I get a call from BAM that the book is there...in the store...with my name on it. The call came 8 weeks after I placed the order for a book that was "in the warehouse". So right then, I vowed that if I could not buy it there, I would get it someplace else. Michael BTW: as an avid baseball fan...I love your 100 words about baseball (I have three more for you...'Bonds Hall NO' » POSTED IN:
