The PocketMod - a FREE Organizational Tool!

Posted in Organization
This is something that is free to everyone. I haven't tried it myself, but I think I will!
 
Pocket Mod is an online program that takes a sheet of paper and shows you how to fold it up into a book with 6 pages, one for each day. You can put type in your to-do list, appointments, goals, zone work, schedule, etc. for each day and it will print it out on that page. When your done, you throw it out and make another.
 
It says it can be interfaced with a PDA, but it looks useful to about anyone! 
 

What is a PocketMod?

The PocketMod is a new way to keep yourself organized. Lets face it, PDAs are too expensive and cumbersome, and organizers are bulky and hard to carry around. Nothing beats a folded up piece of paper. That is until now. With the PocketMod, you can carry around the days notes, keep them organized in any way you wish, then easily transfer the notes to your PDA, spreadsheet, or planner.

The PocketMod is a small book with guides on each page. These guides or templates, combined with a unique folding style, enable a normal piece of paper to become the ultimate note card. It is hard to describe just how incredibly useful the PocketMod is. It's best that you just dive in and create one.

What makes the PocketMod so special?

Many things make this little personal organizer special, here is a 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!

How do I start?

It's easy! Just select the "Create PocketMod" link above to start. You will need the Flash Player in order to run the application. PocketMod will run in your browser. Just select a "mod" from the list and drag it from the preview area to a page. After you have created your PocketMod book, select print. Once it has printed, you will need to fold it into the "PocketMod" form. Just view the "folding" video from inside the application for help.

 

That's it! Happy organizing.

This is the neatest thing. I am going to use it for my homeschool support group by having a yearly calendar, monthly calendar, lined pages, to do list, and other.

Then I am going to make a Diet Book by using the diet dairy pages.

My son is going to use it in his maintence of the church building by using the to do list, the monthly calendar and weekly calender, lined pages, a page for expenditures, etc.

So cool! thanks
