I am interested in the subject of note taking. As such I am also interested in where those notes reside. I find that I like to take notes on paper. I think this must be because of my education through the 60’s on into the 80’s. The Pulse Smart pen is a tool I find myself using more an more, and that means using the note paper that the pen needs. Let’s take a look at them
The first notebook that anyone probably uses is the spiral bound notebook. The pen usually comes with one of these notebooks. There are 4 others that you can buy. This is the traditional one subject college ruled notebooks that you used in school. The pages can be zipped out of the binding. It is already three holed punched so that you can put the notes into a 3-ring binder. I use this notebook when there is going to be a whole lot of note taking going on.
The next kind of notebook is the hard bound, elastic closing notebook familiar to those with a moleskine fetish. 9“X6” notebook that has a sewn binding. This is your journaling notebook. I like to take this one around to log things that occur to me in my day to day life.
,p>The memo Notebook is for taking memos. It does not have a lot of space to write things down. The pages are designed to zip out of the binding. I don’t like this one because the pen is so large and the need to write small in the notebook means I don’t get much use out of this. Since the paper is 3×5 then this is for those that want to use index card type systems.
Of all of the notebooks in this collection I find that I like the hard bound moleskine-like notebook the best. It provides me the best form factor for portability. I find that is getting to be more important to me.
