The posting about Hipster PDA seems far less than last year, but I am able to find another cool implmentation on this index card todo list system. David Kadavy has came up a variation on combining his key chain with the hipster PDA.

Key chain suits this hipster PDA well as you always need to carry around your key – you wouldn’t forget to bring your todo list:
… Now when I have a thought, I can jot it down on one of the cards and be on my way, then I can sort out the cards and assign them to my BaseCamp todo lists when I get back to home base. For very large projects that are just a collection of ideas, I can just sort the appropriate cards to project-dedicated Hipster PDA Keychain, which despite the name, is still handy to have at one’s desk…

That’s tiny. You either have to write with small letters, or keep turning the pages.
The intention really is to just write one thought on each card, then you can make “lists” by sorting the cards into piles. There’s plenty of room on the cards for at least one “todo.”
Where did you get those small index cards?
You could just cut up some 4 x 6 cards into fourths or something.
That’s funny. I started doing this myself. I kept forgetting my hipster on short trips..but I don’t forget my keys.
Just for kicks I’ve working up some templates for “The Fobster”. Will post when they are up.
