Default One cheap and simple way of getting organized

www.pocketmod.com

The basic idea is to use a folded piece of paper to keep track of relevant information you may need. Pocket mod takes this simple concept a step further by allowing you to customize what kind of tables and templates you would like printed on your paper organizer, and then shows you how to fold the paper into a book.

Hope you find it useful.

I, personally, don't need this right now... however, it is a clever idea. Thanks for sharing the link.

HEh, all the fancy PDA sin the world and they are offering the old fashioned pen and paper!!

I do think it is cool though, I prefer pen and paper..no electricity use, no 'boot up time' and most of the information is already on paper..though I go with old fashioned lined paper..and write what I want on it....easy to change with an eraser.

I love this little PocketMod! While I'm severely attached to my current organizer, I don't carry it everywhere with me. I think I am going to use this with the shopping page, lined pages, etc. since it will be easy to carry around for quick notes and grocery lists. I think I'll also include "The 13 virtues . . . " each time I print it as well -- I'm figuring it can't hurt to be reminded of those things on a daily basis! Thanks for posting this.

Hey, that's neat. I've been wanting to do the grocery shopping price book idea, but I haven't wanted to buy a notebook. I'll try using this to make a little price book for each food group.
