I like using a big composition book for serious thinking, but it is too much to carry with me at all times. I used to have a moleskine, but many times it is too much also. My cell phone I *always* have, and my voicemail is a container I check often. I used to use jot to send myself an email via cell phone, but why pay?

It's much appreciated. I have a question that has been raised in passing by others. As I understand it you collect 'to dos' in a notebook then process these to dos into lists. Then in a further step you scan those lists daily to make yet a third daily to do list. This means the same piece of information is being handled three times. Why not simply divide the notebook into various list categories and make a decision on the fly as to which category your idea should go into. This would cut out downloading from the notebook and possibly even remove the need for a daily list. Am I overlooking something in the process here? Thanks for the site, Leo. It’s much appreciated.

It allows you to call and verbally jott down about a minute's worth of speech. It transcribes what you said and keeps track of it. It provides a great interface, including a way to jott to a to-do list, your blog, etc. I have put it on speed dial and eschewed the small notebook for quick notes. As an engineer, I still keep engineering notebooks for longer cognitive expansions, but to capture things while I am on the go, it's jott [dot] com.
