Pile of Index Cards

It’s tough
It is designed for outdoor use, as it’s nature. It’s thick hard cover enable to take a note in any posture. As you start to use index cards, you will meet so many situation that you cannot write index cards.

Idea emerges anytime/anywhere; in a train, in a bed, in a darkness. The field note is the best as idea capturing media in such situation.

It’s reasonable
Kokuyo’s field note costs almost only $2. Surprisingly, the quality is extremely good even such reasonable price.

I use the field note as temporal memory in metaphor of “virtual memory” on computer. It works well since it is reasonable. Imagine if a note costs $20, like Moleskine does, one surely hesitate to write small ideas on it.

A note should not be a “souvenir”. A high price makes us feel that we have to write something “important” only. It only make sense if we use a note in daily base. The low price (but highest quality) of the Kokuyo’s field note makes me feel free to write anything.
