The Hipster PDA Scrabble cheat sheet (v2.0)

March 6, 2010

A while back, I made a Scrab­ble “cheat sheet” that fit in the stan­dard Hip­ster PDA 3x5 index card for­mat.  I used it for a few weeks, both in play­ing the Scrab­ble board game and Words With Friends.  Unfor­tu­nately, it never quite worked the way I wanted it to.
A cou­ple of weeks ago, I updated it to […]

Hipster PDA TODO Envelopes

June 14, 2007

Some­thing I for­got to post a week or two ago: some Hip­ster PDA “hang­ing envelopes” that I made for work and released as a PDF.  Basi­cally, it is a thin enve­lope that you can stick to the wall (with some­thing low-profile like tape or poster putty–thumbtacks may not work.) They’re great for TODO lists […]

Pens

May 30, 2007

I am now offi­cially over the Space Pen.  See A Let­ter To My Pen for my list of gripes and com­plaints.  The new pen, a Cross Ion, is great.  It is a bit more chunky than I’d like, but it writes well and has a good visual indi­ca­tion of how much ink is left.  Plus, […]

A letter to my pen

May 16, 2007

Dear Space Pen,
Although I love you dearly, I believe it is time for us to start see­ing oth­ers.  You have a beau­ti­ful body, which is what ini­tially attracted me to you.  Your com­pact, sleek form that elon­gates into a full-sized pen is absolutely amaz­ing.  As the ini­tial lust for your form-factor is wear­ing off, I am […]

Hipster Sudoku

March 26, 2007

Last time, I talked about print­ing or stamps, but I caved in and sim­ply made a smaller Sudoku grid.  The pre­vi­ous grid was 2.75″ (on a 3″ wide card.) This new one is 2.5″ and should fall within the mar­gin of error of con­sumer double-sided printing.

My 3x5 Life

March 21, 2007

This is another Hip­ster PDA report from the front lines.  Pre­vi­ous ones are tagged hip­ster­pda.
A month or two ago, I picked up a shirt pocket brief­case from Lev­enger.  It’s basi­cally a leather wal­let and writ­ing sur­face for 3x5 cards.  It’s a fancy Hip­ster PDA vari­ant that’s use­ful for car­ry­ing around to meet­ings with clients.  While […]

New Hipster PDA Shopping Template

February 11, 2007

I revis­ited my Hip­ster PDA shop­ping tem­plate.  The items have been grouped by cat­e­gory (i.e. sec­tion of the store) and for­mat­ting has changed in slight ways.  The new tem­plate is called shopping2.  Just like I said with the orig­i­nal shop­ping tem­plate, it is my own per­sonal set of generally-weekly sta­ples and may or may not […]

Hipster PDA Revisited

February 7, 2007

After about a month of using a Hip­ster PDA, I have to say that parts of it are work­ing extremely well and other parts aren’t.
To-Do List
This works sur­pris­ingly well, and I have a lit­tle bit of a the­ory about this.  With the to-do list in my orga­nizer or on the com­puter, I always have to […]
