The Reason For This Blog

I have been scouring the internet for what people are calling 'hacks', bassically modifications, for my notebook so i could turn it into a functional and organized paper version of a pocket pc type thingy. i have for the past one and a half years been using small notebooks, bits of paper and parts of my mobile phone to accomodate my many needs so this year i decided to try and fit it all into one thing, a moleskine notebook. only one problem. none of the hacks i found were exactly what i needed, so i decided that i would take the best ideas and put them to the test and see what i came up with for the final version. the outcome of this is what the blog follows, The Evolution Of My Moleskine.

The first step.

After much deliberation I decided to perform some butchery on the moleskine, This involved the removal of the first set of pages! Whoa you cant do that! Yes I can, Or I thought I could. I removed the pages by carefully pulling them from the stitching, This seemed easily done but I accidentely pulled out one page too many and the cover fell away from the front of the main pages!


The book still held itself together quite well so I went to the next step, Attaching the contacts book I got with my red diary. This was quite simply done by using sticky tape round the edges and wacking it straight in behind the front cover.



I also find with every moleskine with a pocket at the back they tend to tear at the fold on the fasbric so i simply put some tape on it. Simple!
next is the adding of a planner somehow, but thats for the next post.
