If anyone from 3M is reading this…

…I love your products, especially my secret workshop weapon, the giant post-it. However, please could you devote the energies of your research department to devising some whay to make post-it notes stay in the correct positions that they were put in by workshop participants on flipcharts, at least until you have to try and turn them into diagrams.

  • a fixitive spray that would make the post-its grab the paper with a vice like grip until you sprayed it again.
  • a special electromagnetizing wand that activated tiny alloy rods in each note achieving the same effect.
  • make each note secrete a distinct chemical marking on impact with the flipchart: a territorial-pissing that if dislodged, the transplanted motive power and instinct of seacucumber-derived fibres of the displaced post-it can home back in on.

C’mon guys – think brand-extension! New revenue streams! I’m doing your gruddam work for you!!!

  1. Tear flipchart sheet off, stick on wall with masking tape. At the end of the session pile them all up, roll them up, and bob’s yer uncle. Always worked for me without losing post-its… What are you doing to them!?

  2. I always snap a digital pic of everything before I leave the room, but who could resist buying a magic wand?

    Nothing like perpetuating the “design is magic” fallacy, right?
