Our Most Popular PostsDot Grid Notebookscheapo | Oct 22 2007I am an architect. I recently began using the extra large (7.5" x 9.75") gridded Moleskine cahiers for my note-taking.

Drop the text file, and step away from the PowerbookMerlin Mann | Sep 16 2004MacBreakZ - Your Personal Ergonomic Assistant Designer, gentleman, and Vice-President of my Personal Board of Directors™, Doug Bowman, recently told me about this cool OSX app for reminding yourself to take frequent breaks.

Might be a bit much for most folks, but I’ll bet it’s a sure way to save your eyes and wrists from some hard mileage. POSTED IN:
