First, this week, we are shamelessly plugging Jesi’s sister and her nieces Kickstarter project. Because we all need a chance to scare away bad dreams and make our dreams of entrepreneurship a reality. Nobody tell Emma and her little sister what a drag order fulfillment and logistics can be, okay? Of course, she’s going to be the only kid in school who can actually use logistics in a sentence.

And then there’s this:
- google launches tools for digital wellbeing including a ‘paper phone’ (via Design Boom)
- Paper paper everywhere (via Bleistift)
While I appreciate that even Google recognizes that we all spend too much time checking our phones for input and scrolling endlessly through updates on Instagram, Reddit, Facebook or Twitter… a paper phone? Isn’t that just a notebook? C’mon!

If you want a paper phone, why not just pick up a Hipster PDA (http://www.43folders.com/2004/09/03/introducing-the-hipster-pda)?
I was also reminded of the Hipster PDA!
This looks like a printout or report, not a standard notebook.
Yes! Totally reminds me of the legendary HipsterPDA!
Thank you so much for promoting our Kickstarter! We’re making sure the girls know exactly how painful order fulfillment and logistics can be. No way we’re doing all the work! Anyways, we need them to support us when we’re old. Thanks for helping Emma do her part 😉
