It's weird. I never found notebooks all that useful until a relative bought me a Moleskine as a gift. I can't put the stupid thing down now, there's definitely some kind of "there" there...a kind of delicious physical quality that makes me want to write stuff in it.
- tjr 16y agoI agree. A couple of years ago, I saw someone here on HN praising Moleskine notebooks. I looked it up, and was perplexed at the high price... for a notebook? But somehow that thought stuck in my head, and a few months later I bought one. It's great. Nicest thing to write in I've ever owned. I just wish I could explain more precisely why.
- mkramlich 16y agoIt's all the little touches. Apple Mac is to Windows PC's a bit like Moleskine is to regular blah notebooks. The former is for those seeking a quality experience. The latter the cheapest experience.
- mkramlich 16y agoI did something similar. I gave Moleskines as gifts to two people I know. One said it was the best notebook he's ever had. I'm trying to infect people. I want these things to stay in production this time.
