Simon Kirby from Digital Zoo a series on photos on showing his setup on Hipster PDA. One of the unique feature that he did is using CD sleeve. It is a quite neat setup.
I have asked him on his setup, here is what he told me:
I got into Getting Things Done a couple of months ago and also came across
the Hipster PDA not long after that.It reminded me very much of a custom Filofax arrangement I made in the
mid-nineties – right down to the binder-clip.Fast forward to a month ago and I went to my local stationery superstore to
buy some 3×5 cards and found they only stocked lined cards. Which meant
Douglas Johnston’s excellent templates looked terrible when printed on them.I also noticed that the HPDA templates seemed to suit people with tiny
handwriting… Not my large and ugly scrawl. So I designed a series of “Bare
Bones” 3×5 GTD templates in Microsoft Word that would actually work with the
feint ruled lines on the cards as well as allow space for my unwieldy
scribbles. And as a tribute to all those old filing card systems – and to
continue the retro groove – I designed the templates using an old typewriter
font.
Looking around for container to carry them in, I settled for the ubiqutious
CD sleeve as a neat and disposable answer. This solution is so cheap, you
never have to worry about losing the BBHPDA (!) when you can easily make a
new one. I have also use two laminated inserts for extra strength, and I can
keep my current cards in the front and blanks in the back.Easy.
