3 x 5 index cards as your ultimate PIM tool.

I heard (read) the idea first from a post in the plug-misc mailing list as a reply to one user's post asking about the PIM tools that others were using. The idea is so simple and yet well reasoned that I quickly bought the idea (quite naturally, the cred of the poster gave the idea a hell of a backing). I didn't actually followed the advise right away and sure enough, forgot it a few days later (MARK the procrastinator 1, Mark the OC, 0)

Fast forward one week. I stumbled upon (thru del.icio.us, hehe) this very cool hack: "The Hipster PDA". Great Men Think Alike, huh?

I'll definitely be making my own Hipster PDA. Now.

  2. was (in the newbie list). I stopped my email subscription back in 2003 and rarely visited the list after. I just dropped by the archives a week before I made this post (and saw), but I can't remember how I got there again.

  4. You do know that the PLUG mailing list archives has moved to http://archives.free.net.ph/list/plug.html

    Anyhow, you're on Gmail, right? Hehehehe. Stay tuned. It's fun being in the mailing list ;) There's an EB on Saturday too. Maybe you'd like to join us. Masterminds of the EB are: Dean Berris and Cha Gascon.

  5. Got that, thanks for the info (though it's easy to find it on google anyway).

    Gmail? Of course. Who's not? hehe

    Hmm. i grew tired of storing list messages in my gmail though since archives are available somewhere else anyway, (in case i need them).

  10. yep. I've read ur reply in your blog. Just refer to my reply there. ;p

    I'm just curious on how you keep tab of the blog-posts that you've commented on? When you first posted your comment here I Honestly didn't think that this will turn in a pseudo-(gmail-ish)conversation.

    But I'm glad that it did, since kilala pala kita. Haha. Small blogger world.
