Low Tech "Hipster" PDA (Humorous)

Bob Russell · 01-10-2005, 09:50 AM

Ever feel like paper and pencil is better than screen and stylus, but that it doesn't live up to geek status? Well, now you can get the best of both worlds with the Hipster PDA. It's simply a stack of low-tech index cards, but just for fun the author discusses settings and preferences, David Allen's Getting Things Done and gives tips on how to organize your Hipster PDA.

Technology is amazing, but good 'ole paper is pretty amazing too!

Yes, it is like ebooks - my grandfather tells me that paper books actually worked when he was a child.
