My first Plotter notebook
The Plotter Notebook I favor technology, though something about the feel of paper appeals to me. It’s the feel, the sound, even the smell of paper that keeps me coming back, not the efficiency. {{more}} In fact, paper systems don’t work for me. I’ve tried bullet journaling, planners, and other approaches. I love the writing part, but after it’s written, it gets abandoned. The index card system, where I have an index card on my desk and I write my tasks for the day and check them off when they get done, has been the only analog system that has worked for me.

The Supernote Digest as a Commonplace Book or Zettelkasten
I recently started using a Supernote Nomad for writing notes, journaling, and light task management. I wrote about my thoughts on the hardware recently, and in this post, I wanted to think about the Digest feature. After all, this feature is one of the main reasons I went with the Supernote. For the longest time, I’ve enjoyed writing on paper, but it never stuck. I enjoyed the process of writing, but then finding my notes is where everything fell apart. Continue reading →

Supernote Nomad vs. Remarkable Paper Pro Move
Almost two weeks ago, I purchased a reMarkable Paper Pro Move on a whim and, after some research, decided to order a Supernote Nomad to compare and see which device I prefer. The Device The reMarkable Paper Pro Move feels slightly more premium, with rigid aluminum edges and a nice back plate with small pads to prevent sliding while lying flat on a table. The Supernote Nomad , on the other hand, is mostly plastic. Continue reading →

Testing out the reMarkable Paper Pro Move
I’m always bouncing between paper and digital applications for simple task lists, journaling, and note-taking. On one hand, I love handwriting out my lists and notes. It gives me a chance to disconnect from technology and think about what I’m writing. On the other hand, after I’ve written it down and it’s no longer right in front of me, it’s out of my mind forever. I’m terrible at finding and reviewing my handwritten notes. Continue reading →

Book Palma Battery Life
Don’t expect to get weeks of battery on the Boox Palma. In my experience so far, I get a couple of days. I’m using the Kindle app, Readwise Reader, and the Micro.blog apps. I’m sure it could be a bit better if you disabled Wi-Fi. It doesn’t compare to the Kindle regarding battery life, but has many other advantages. Continue reading →

My Apple Vision Pro Demo
I had the opportunity to demo the Apple Vision Pro yesterday. The following is a write-up of my experience. The Demo My store had a section blocked off with a couple of tables where a few people could do the demo simultaneously. Unfortunately, it was a sitting experience and quite loud in the room. It was not the ideal setup because of the noise and the other people in my “view,” but it didn’t deter the experience much. Continue reading →

I really want to try this device. I’m happy with my Kindle Scribe for reading, but having a phone sized device that I as an ereader and access to Android apps would be cool.

My Detailed reMarkable 2 Review
I have recently discovered that I love writing on paper. It allows me to escape the digital world, and writing on paper will enable me to think without distractions. But paper can be messy. You deal with flipping through pages, smudging, difficult-to-fix mistakes, and the inability to move things, among other issues. While some argue this enhances the experience, others may find a better solution. The reMarkable 2 is an e-ink device, similar to a Kindle, but built for writing. Continue reading →
