PLAN THE WORK WORK THE PLAN

@nathanrhale this looks like an interesting paper product. Link?

@ChrisJWilson it’s the Emergent Task Planner (mini). Highly recommended. Just updated the OP with an Amazon (affiliate) link.

@ChrisJWilson David Seah

@ChrisJWilson More details

@nathanrhale @ChrisJWilson I've had an "ETP pad on my desk for years. Love them.

@nathanrhale Ah yes! I haven't heard that name for a while! Might have to grab a set

@jack I remember hearing about them years ago but never made the jump…maybe now's the time!

@jack @nathanrhale I just discovered the reason why I've never bought them. The Amazon UK store has them for 44 pounds!

@nathanrhale Indeed!

@ChrisJWilson There's a note on David's site saying: "PLEASE NOTE: Amazon USA is ONLY site offering the ETP directly from me. Listings in other countries are being sold by resellers who are marking-up the price.". You could always print your own I suppose.

@jack I wonder if any local printers have nice paper 🤔 (I noticed that on his site after seeing the extortionate prices)

@ChrisJWilson Wow that’s terrible pricing. Definitely look into having some printed on nice paper.

@jack I loving having the ETP on hand for those days you feel like you need to take a ste back and look at the whole thing before jumping in.

@ChrisJWilson I printed my own sheets on 100gsm paper - and I imported it into Goodnotes so generally I use it from there.

@vanessa goodnotes is a good idea too!

@ChrisJWilson It works for me. Generally my planning is analogue, but on a day when I know I have to be strict with my time, out comes Goodnotes with the sheet loaded. And then I can reallocate on the fly more easily, too, when the inevitable disruptions occur.

@nathanrhale David Seah gets it.

@ChrisJWilson Your local printer should have some 100-110 gsm uncoated offset paper. If they print digital, have them print one page for handwriting testing. Some digital printers have a wax based toner to which many inks will not adhere.

@chrisjwilson If the printer will give you the make and model of their digital press, I can tell you how well it will work for this application OR give you alternative paper recommendations. Your printer should be able to punch, coil bind and corner round.

@paulcraig901 I’m planning a trip this weekend and I’ll update you. Should be a good language test 🤪

@paulcraig901 Back in the Google Reader days, I read David Seah every day. It was nice to see his name pop up here, sorta like maybe we're expanding to take back those good days. I'll go see what he's been up to since then.

@Ron Installed Reeder a few weeks ago and am in the process of recreating those days. The web was better then.

@paulcraig901 I started using Feedly after Google Reader shut down. I'm supposing that Reeder is an RSS reader too. Does Reeder do anything special that I'm not getting with Feedly?

@Ron Wish I could give you a comparison but I’m unfamiliar with Feedly. I went client when Google Reader died.

@vasta @paulcraig901 I see, so it doesn't replace Feedly, but helps to read the items that an RSS aggregator pulls together. That sounds worth checking out! Maybe I'll give it a try on my iPod Touch. Thanks to both of you for your help!
