Then I did the “hackers pda,” just a stack of index cards with a binder clip. And I would spike the oldest onto one of those restaurant order metal spikey things. Now I just use obsidian. But I miss the tactile and visual artifacts.

I enjoyed using that. I eventually moved to just carrying a travel notebook though. A bit more bulk, but a lot less likely to just up and lose it.
