How are you using your Moleskine?
jcisco | Sep 27 2006
I was inspired by patrickrhone's suggestions on using a moleskine for a capturing device. I bought one, figuring I would use it - but at the same time I discovered the essence of HipsterPDA (I'm very, very new to GTD, have not even finished the book yet). So I have my Moleskine, with some index cards in the back. Yet I find I am only using the index cards, capturing what needs to be captured, and tossing them in my physical inbox. So what are you using your Moleskine's for? Todo lists? Just need some input and advice. Thanks! 29 Comments

 I use index cards for...Submitted by mdl on October 5, 2006 - 10:35am.
I use index cards for capturing and for my actions. I jot down random thoughts and incoming to-dos on index cards. I also use index cards for academic notetaking. So where does that leave the Moleskine? Well, I use the Moleskine primarily for storing reference information and for brainstorming, thinking, drafting, interacting with stuff I've read, etc. Any important reference info for a project I'm working on goes in my pocket Moleskine. (I keep a running index in the back of the book.) Often, when I'm reading something, I'll jot down my impressions of an argument or the book as a whole in the Moleskine (leaving the index cards for more "atomic" notes). And I use the Moleskine to flesh out ideas or even to draft sections of papers I'm working on. I find that these index cards and the Moleskine complement each other quite nicely. These two portable tools allow me to brainstorm, outline, research, and draft anything I'd like. » POSTED IN:
