Moleskine Paired With Action


Our spread of Moleskine paired with Action was featured on Moleskinerie this morning, check it out: Behance on Moleskinerie




Behance Outfitter Welcomes Moleskine

 

Moleskine has been added to Behance's Outfitter.  Why?  Because we love it.  Great Idea generators from the past and present love it.  We think it is a solid marriage  with the Action Cards and Pads...  Great sketches and notations are wonderful, but only when paired with action steps!  And, since we're trying to serve creative professionals (rather than be a traditional online store), we're able to provide a low price (actually lower than the prices we were able to find anywhere else...).


Some nice sites around the web have already picked up on this addition, namely LifeDev (a great productivity site that we help sponsor) and Totally Random.


We also appreciate the shout-outs on the Action Method from some great sites that we found thanks to the functionality of Technorati, including Lett Designs and Scott J. Elias' blog.
