Summary

Catch your best ideas before they slip through your fingers Do you ever have flashes of insight or an idea worth remembering? This happens to me 5-10 times every day. If I don鈥檛 write down the thought immediately, it slips out of my mind. Worst of all, I remember that I鈥檝e forgotten something and spend the next 10 minutes trying to remember what it is. So I invented external memory for my brain. Introducing Pebble Index 01 - a small ring with a button and microphone. Hold the button, whisper your thought, and it鈥檚 sent to your phone.
