Excellent Hipster PDA setup – Calendar mode

One of our readers, Javier Cabrera pimped up his setup of Hipster PDA. He made his Hipster PDA as a calendar – on a side of the index card is printed the current month calendar, and then he wrote his tasks on the back of the card.

… There i can see all days on the current month, if i have to do something on the 22 of July, lets say “Kill Jason” i make a circle (because its a small task). If the task is really important i make a square instead.
The following is really simple; i flip the card and i write “22/Kill Jason”. That’s it. Every day i go thru this and it works!…

Thanks Javier! It’s pretty cool!

Just out of curiosity… Have you considered developing a way to remove appointments?
*save me*

If anybody wants to implement this, I made a similar item a couple of months ago: http://unmake.org/cgi-bin/rand.....cards.html

Jason: not really. My appointments don’t change a lot to come up with a system for that. But hey! you can do it if you need to. I will think something for that…
its interesting. There have to be a way…

I just come up with a solution!
Don’t write on pen,do it on pencil. That way you always can erase the appointment and go back. Of course, you will never have a pen on your pocket, but always a good pencil.
That’s right… but hey! you always need a pen on a work day, a way or other we all need a pen somethimes so why don’t carry one along with your fisher-pen or whatever?
I usually have a laptop-backpack where i have a couple of extra-pen and two pencils with that little erasers attached to one side. They come usefull when i make sketches of my designs.
Try it. Don’t just use pen, try a good pencils. RIght now on the market there are excellent quality pencils. Look here at amazon for some mechanical pencils for just $0.48! (here) and if you want something more cooler, here is some alternative for $7.
And Jason, you’re not going to talk your way out of this. On 22 of this month, you are going down my friend; with a rock. :)))))
Help this helped you!
