After creating the original mind.Depositor with clips and used it for a while, I found a small problem but it bugs me on regular basis. To insert and pull out the cards, it requires force, no matter how small it is, it creates stress. That's why superior Japanese stationery designs often put into considerations how to reduce user efforts. They call the practice "Universal Design".
So I set out to do a simpler version by using two pieces of leather only. I also have a practice to carry a small notepad or Field Notes to capture to-do inputs temporarily before transferring them to GTD index cards. So I'm adding a slit for the notepad and a slit to store extra blank index cards.
On the left hand side of the cover, I can put a notepad by inserting it to a slit, put blank GTD index cards in the pocket and insert a Field Notes.
On the right hand side I can put two categories of index cards (Personal and Work) into different pockets.
There is also a flap used as a bookmark or enclosure.
The whole thing becomes more compact and functional. It requires less effort to use, it is a simpler design with pleasant leather as the only material, I'm so happy with it. I especially like the color contrast of the outer white and inner brown. So check out the sections below and learn how to create your own.

My daughter is in the middle of scheduling all her potential college visits this summer and fall. We wanted to make sure that all our questions would be addressed during each visit. We don't want to have an "Oh we forgot to ask..." moment after we get in the car to drive back home, so I've created this Moleskine Personal Kanban to take with us on the visits. The set up is pretty straight forward: the backlog consists of colleges to visit and questions for the visit. Since each campus will have campus specific questions I've tagged the questions with the college initials. Once the visit is in-progress we will pull the questions into the visit-in-progress lane and after they have been addressed we will pull them over to completed. We also set up a board in LeanKit ( www.flickr.com/photos/swimmor/14624255593/ ) so that we could all (Mom, Dad and daughter) visit it and populate questions when they came to mind and when online visiting the college websites. This also aided in streamlining our process. We feel much more confident in our visits now. We won't have the pressure of focusing on thinking what we should ask during the tour. We will be focusing on the visit with much more clarity.

This is me in my studio experimenting on how to uglify my mug for a design for a e-sleeve for my experimental music band project!

here you can see the Mead notebook covers. I tried a version with matting board, but it frayed around the edges after about 3 months. The only downside to the plastic covers is the fact that I can't draw on them while I'm in boring meetings.
Close Up of my @Calls context bin and Reference Bin. Eventually I will use an old library card catalog box to organize my Reference cards in "cold" storage.
I so want this "18th century version of the PDA" (via 43 Folders). Thanks for giving me something else to drool over, Merlin.

A bike that caught my attention at work. A Fuji with a clever use of a kitty litter box. This would be great on a rainy commute.
We revised the original board to add a retrospective lane(s), so we could sit down and collaborate on our take-aways from the visit once it was over.

Sometimes when I'm sitting on the couch reading a book, my legs get a
little bit chilly. I don't always want to break out the blanket,
because blankets can be unwieldy, and anyway I don't want to get the
blanket all dirty with my shoes. What to do? My solution is to have
my cat sit on my lap. She thinks she's getting a comfortable spot to
rest, and I get legwarmers! CATHACK!
We are going on vacation soon and I have so much to take care of for my family I wanted to make sure I didn't forget to pack anything or purchase anything both at home before we left and after we arrived at our destination. I designed this Moleskine Personal Kanban to make sure I had my family covered with everything we needed. I am excited to see how this Personal Kanban flows.

This is the index card accordion filer I just bought to serve as my new hipster PDA and portable, multi-context list organizer.
My previous PDA is on the right. I'm a bit torn. I will really miss the breast pocket convenience of my old PDA. I may use both for the time being.
My daughter had specific questions she wanted addressed during our visit. So she asked for a lane to add her questions in. I revised the original board to add her lane and a retrospective lane(s) as well (on following pages) See that image in the link below (update 18b) so we could collaborate on our take-aways from the visit.

It is not easy to wash your hands in a period characterized by the threat of bacteria and viruses. First of all, get clear spring water from high-altitude glaciers. Then dry well-washed rubber gloves outside with fresh spring air. Pour the glacier water into a sterile metal bowl and then dip your hands, which have been previously protected with the rubber gloves, into the water. In this way your hands will not be harmed if the water contains too many harmful acids. Please note, however, that your hands must be washed before putting on the gloves, otherwise they may not be clean. So it is all quite simple.
Het is niet gemakkelijk om je handen te wassen in een periode die wordt gekenmerkt door de dreiging van bacteriën en virussen. Allereerst moet u helder bronwater halen uit gletsjers op grote hoogte. Daarna droogt u goed gewassen rubberen handschoenen buiten met frisse bronlucht. Giet het gletsjerwater in een steriele metalen kom en dompel uw handen, die eerder met de rubberen handschoenen zijn beschermd, in het water. Zo worden uw handen niet beschadigd als het water te veel schadelijke zuren bevat. Houd er echter rekening mee dat u uw handen moet wassen voordat u de handschoenen aantrekt, omdat ze anders mogelijk niet schoon zijn. Het is dus allemaal heel simpel.
