I thought it would be fun to provide an illustrated tour of some of the ways that I use InkSeine on my Tablet PC. So, without further ado, here is the first installment of "Twelve Days of InkSeine."

Day #1: Use InkSeine to Make a Project Binder

I've become quite dependent on InkSeine in my daily work. I use it to keep track of all my different projects that I am working on. I keep everything that I need related to a project on a page of my notebook. Sometimes one page suffices. For bigger projects, I might have a note with several pages of links, searches, and clippings as I work through different tasks and ideas.

On the page shown below, I've collected links to all the documents that a student named Gonzalo and I used when we were writing a journal article. You can see a search for his name at the top of the page. Whenever I return to this project, I open that search to see all of our recent email correspondence back and forth with one quick flick of my pen. I don't even have to switch to Outlook. You can also see links to various drafts of our article, which I crossed off as we revised it.

Gonzalo and I wrote about the trend for mobile devices to include sensors such as accelerometers (tilt sensors). The iPhone craze was just starting at that point, and I did a Web Search to dig up some information about the iPhone's sensors. I captured a few snippets of the device that I came across in my searches.

So that's how I use InkSeine to gather together and annotate all of the stuff that I need to refer to while I'm working on a project.
