Taking Notes
Originally uploaded by philgyford.
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?

On the subject of Post-Its,...
On the subject of Post-Its, Rake Magazine, a Twin Cities-based free monthly, did their cover article this month on the history, the man, and the social impact behind those little yellow notes. A really good read: http://rakemag.com/features/detail.asp?catID=61&itemID=20620
