[IxDA Discuss] Back to Basics

[Christine Boese]

Along these same lines, I would like to inquire (as someone not experienced
with this particular user interface) as to what makes the "Moleskine squared
journals" superior to other products?

I was thinking of buying one, you see, and upon looking at little web
pictures, I have no sense of what would make it worth buying. Many people
here seem familiar with the particular values of this medium.
