Over the course of a month we used Wacom’s Bamboo Slate to see if the gadget helped or hindered our workflow for when we needed to put some ink to paper. The Bamboo Slate is essentially the same as any traditional notepad, but housed on top of a sensitive tablet. Wacom, the creator of some of the most used design tablets on the market, has another solution for just this occasion, and it’s as simple as taking notes as you usually would and pressing a button. The issue in that situation being that you’re then left with dictating the information back to some digital means, scanning it and converting it, or accidentally spilling coffee all over it (bad infomercial style). However, sometimes you just need a good ole fashion notepad and pen to illustrate what’s brewing in your mind. If you’re also anything like me and have terrible handwriting, then computers, tablets, and mobile devices are the preferred method for taking notes. In an ever growing digital world, the days of writing on notepads and in journals are quickly going the way of the dodo bird.
