Google Tasks

I want to like Google tasks, really I do.

But, try as I might, I can't bring myself to like them.  Or use them regularly.  They are just so limited wrt other task management systems.

Here, I will take notes.  Although I may just as often start a new blog tem.

Tasks due Dates, Times,

Google Tasks have due dates.

Sometimes tasks also need a due time.  E.g. it is pointless to call a business before it is open.  Or, think about how often people batch tasks to be done before work, at lunch time, or after work.

And think about how many tasks can only be done during business hours, not on the weekends or after work.  (These tasks are my particular bugbear.)

Tablet NoteTaker

• Pegasus Technologies has developed a digital pen called "Tablet NoteTaker." The NoteTaker is a cordless digital pen that writes with ink on plain paper, while creating a digital ink copy of the notes. It connects to computers or other devices such as mobile phones via Bluetooth or USB technology. Microsoft Vista, Windows 7 and Office 2007 utilities support the NoteTaker as both a digital pen and a mouse. Via Microsoft's handwriting recognition, notes can be transferred to typed text. The Notetaker is also compatible with Mac OS X systems.

Digital Pen for 3x5 index cards

I'd be relatively happy if the digital pen that I would like to buy would just email me the image.

Sure, I'd like to interface to good software to manage such images.  But I doubt that there is any good software.

AdapX's connection to Microsoft OneNote would be nice.  I like many aspects of OneNote.  Except that it is so much NOT what I am using these days.


Hmm....  if OneNote was in the cloud, and on a Windows phone ... that might be enugh reason to buy a Windows phone.

Although talk about data liberation (NOT).

Digital pen to Evernote might almost be okay.  

But digital pen to email might be good enough.

Wish that the digital pen could also take pictures.

Printing | Capturx

Printing | Capturx: "An initial Capturx purchase includes a large amount of unique digital dot pattern: enough to print more than 6000 8-1/2-x-11 pages or more than 2000 E-sized prints. Dot pattern is like printer toner: it gets used up as you print. Additional dot pattern is available for purchase and download from Adapx."

Oh, this is cool (in a cruel sort of way): just because AdapX/CapturX can print its dot pattern on regular paper doesn't mean you can buy the pen and use it forever without buying more stuff from AdapX.

Digital razor blades: you have to go back to the source and buy more.  And from their point of view, they don't even have to sell you anything physical: they just sell you the dot patterns.

Cool. And annoying.

I wonder if the dots are a Penrose tiling, or if they just have a numeric unique ID encoded in the dot patterns. (Plus probably a copyright watermark, eh?)

Hmm....  is there a way that you can look at a Penrose tiling printed on a piece of paper, and easily compute your coordinates, where in a sequence of such pages, you are?

(Modulo paper size and resolution, it will repeat.  But not for a long time, depending on the resolution.)

Using blogger for a totally inappropriate purpose - capturing notes on web pages.

But only because I don't have takeout for Google+, my normal web page annotater.

Ah, good.  It appears that standard printers can grab and print on 3"x5" index cards.

I'll try this when I get home.

This makes the AdapX pen more attractive: buy cheap index cards, print a bunch of them.  And then record.

I doubt any printer I have can auto-feed 3"x5" cards, however.
