My Kingdom for the Right Sized Pad!

Are you like the average computerist and have 10,000 notes scribbled all over the place? Can your chicken scratch be seen on napkins, envelopes, small children, dogs, iguanas; anything in range? Is everything that can be written on (and even things that can’t) filled with your illegible analog script?

Web urls, product model #’s, device driver names, email accounts, passwords, article notes, phone numbers, reminders, checklists, wish lists - all this and more is usually scattered all over a 20mile radius of any computer user’s room. Notes crammed in desks, accidently tossed out, obscured by coffee or cola spills, lost and/or forgotten is the plague of a computerist’s life.

There’s just no way to write it all down in one place. Have a pad, forget where it is, so you scrawl something on a postcard that’s closer. Writing everything is just not doable on the computer, far too awkward and unavailable in case of emergencies like power outages, computer crashes, typhoons, The Inquisition, not to mention stampedes of lustful oxen. This dilemma doth plague the computer user and their hectic, eclectic note-taking for eons. Give or take eons.

My kingdom for the perfect pad of paper! A pad where you can organize and write down everything! Whoever invents the perfect of pad of paper will rule the world! One that’s not too small that you have no place to write! One not too big it gets in the way of the mousepad or keyboard; or you have to bitch-slap the sleepy cat off the desk into the wastebasket filled with cranky piranhas just to lay it flat.

Ever look in a drawer and see how many random pieces of writeable material with unorganized indecipherable notes of old are? How does one organize such a mess?

You don’t.

Just venting. God my desk is a mess!

Hope you all lay awake at night thinking about this.

My kingdom for the perfect pad of paper!
