In Search Of: is going to be an ongoing feature where I torture test products from different manufacturers designed to fill the same niche market. First on the chopping block is the pocket notebook.

Given the amount of writing that I do, a quality pocket notebook is essential. Right now, I’m running Field Notes, Moleskine, and Piccadilly notebooks through the gamut of live concerts, spilled beer and the County Comm Embassy Pen. There are some see-through pages, some frayed covers and some bleeding, but all of them are holding up admirably well. Next week I’ll do individual posts on each of the three and we’ll see where it goes from there.

If you have any suggestions for notebooks I should murder with words, leave a comment below.
