Handpicked Software

I don’t use a PDA. I had a Palm once, a long time ago, but I never bothered to replace it after the battery died. Someone once said that using a PDA was like getting in your car to drive next door. Most of the time, simple pen and paper do the trick and my Letts Slim Diary never runs out of batteries. But if you don’t feel like shelling out $15 for a Letts diary, or you want something that can fit in a wallet, try a PocketMod.

A PocketMod is a small “book” constructed from one folded sheet of paper, yielding front and back covers and 6 inside pages. What makes it so special? According to PocketMod, here’s the list:

1. It fits easily in your back pocket or purse.
2. It’s as cheap as one piece of paper (Because that’s all it is!)
3. It opens like a book. Leading to easier to find, more organized notes.
4. The first page has a pouch, big enough to carry a business card!
5. Customizable with "Mods" tailored to your needs.
6. It’s free and fun!

Your PocketMod can make use of a variety of page templates, including grid pages, tables, story boards, musical staff sheets, calendars, lists, food diaries, contacts, check books, tip tables, and games (Dots, SoDoku, and Tic Tac Toe).

PocketMod is a Flash application. You can access it online or download it from the PocketMod site.

Bottom Line: The PocketMod is svelte, flexible, and free, and you won’t need any handwriting recognition software.
