Like the original Scribe, the 2024 model is a 10.2-inch e-reader that comes with a stylus so you can write directly on the device. But this version introduces meaningful software upgrades that make the note-taking experience more intuitive, many of which are also available for the original Scribe. You can now directly annotate ebook pages and scribble notes in expandable margins, for example. Plus, if you’re connected to the internet, you can take advantage of new AI-based tools that let you sum

For quick reminders and can’t-miss memos, sticky notes are effective tools, and I'd argue that the simplicity of the sticky note is its best attribute. But the ease behind propping up sticky notes also means that it’s easy for people to find their desks covered in the things, making it difficult to glean critical information quickly.
