Ixp-Note is Post-It Note Of the Future: Digital, Alarming

A team of designers in Britain have give the good old fashioned Post-It note a 21st Century electronic make-over. Their Ixp-Note device is a new digital version incorporating a touchpad and alarm: you just slide to select time and date, and write down what you need reminding of. When it's time, it bleeps and the little thermo-chromic ink pad changes color. Neat, hey? More »

Build Your Own Electronic Post-it Note

Post-it notes are one of those archaic products that still manage to stick around, literally, in our offices and homes. With this hack, you can transform the beloved Post-it into a very 21st-century digital note system. To leave a note, all you need to do is write it out with your finger on the trackpad. The message will show up on the LCD, which can be erased with a push of a button. It's not the easiest hack in the world, but for only $175 it is not the most expensive either. Plus, with a nice enclosure, it could be very functional. [PopSci]

The Evolution of The Post-it

The Post-it note is one of those seemingly simple ideas that end up taking off and making a fortune. While there are plenty of higher tech alternatives out there looking to capitalize on Post-it success, there is still something about the classic that keeps people coming back. This Pock-it concept doesn't look to completely re-invent the Post-it note —it just gives it a basic upgrade with the addition of a convenient little pocket. The folks at 3M should be all over this and get it on the market if you ask me. [Yanko Design]
