I have to say, every time I come to I Need An Organizer | Twisted there is another exciting article to read. One of my friends was talking to me about this topic couple weeks ago. I think I will e-mail them the url here and see what they say.

[...] of my organizer, I have yet to order a Moleskine. I’m waiting for my dad to order something from Amazon [...]

You could also buy a plain Moleskine notebook and make your own. http://www.rohdesign.com/weblog/archives/001850.html

That way you not only have a Moleskine, but it’ll be much more personalized.

Haha, wow, I’ve never even heard of Moleskine… I just use the planner that I get from the university I go(now went since I’ve graduated) to. It’s the same style as the one I’ve used in high school, so I was used to it. It’s a daily planner, and even though I don’t have much, it’s really helpful.

I agree that a Moleskine is a great choice! They’re very durable and that’s generally a good thing when it’s getting tossed in your backpack. Like Manda, I use iCal on my MacBook because it contains my life and comes just about everywhere with me anyway. But a Moleskine is definitely a good choice if you want something handwritten.

I swear by my Moleskine. I was outraged at how pricey they are, but you can find some good deals online. And Clem is right; the 18 month planners just started. You can find the format to a weekly one here: http://www.moleskineus.com/moleskine-18-month-large-hard-cover.html

They come in different sizes. The pocket was too small for me, so I use a large. It’s not really all that big and I’m able to carry it around in my purse. You can see what people do with their Moleskines (and non-Moleskine) organizers here: http://livejournal.com/community/organizers

I’ve been using Moleskines for a while now and I can’t use any other kind. It’s worth the money you pay for if you’re a person who needs organization in your life. I forget things quite easily, and my Moleskine has never let me down so long as I don’t forget to write something down.

I agree with Clem’s suggestion as well. Personally, I just use iCal on my MacBook, and as it syncs to my iPhone I’m good to go

I was also about to suggest a Moleskine. It’s a bit more pricey, but you can “hack” it to your own needs. Look it up on google “moleskine hacks” and you’ll get a lot of inspiration on how some people handle their moleskine as an organizer.

I second Clem’s comment. The next organizer I get after my current one ends in December will definitely be a Moleskine.

If you want something a bit less pricey, though, just go to your local bookstore or stationery store and look through the organizer section. Or if your school sells planners, get one of those (I did that throughout most of middle and high school; school planners may be ugly, but they work).

I wouldn’t make my own planner, but that’s just because I’m lazy :p
