mid-tech: use an old mobile phone instead of paper and pen

Thanks, but the whole point was that I don't need anything more advanced than a sticky. It's much easier to just make a note when I take the disc out of the player, than having to go to a program. The pen and the sticky are right there. Very little chance that I'll be distracted and forget to update it.

Since I'm watching most of my episodes on my 27" computer monitor, I went for the "high-tech" solutuion after all: http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=854719

Don't get me wrong. I am not knocking high-tech solutions. I use Letterboxd to keep track of watched movies. And Profiler to keep track of them, too, plus fully watched TV show seasons (or in a few instances half-seasons).

I don't watch things on my PC. I watch everything on my TV which is in a different room. I use my iPad to flag watched movies. Unlike movies, I have never found a need to know when I watched a certain TV episode or how I rated it. I don't need to break it down any further than per season. But that's just me...

That's where NOTEPAD.EXE comes in


I actually do similar to you, Gunnar, except that I keep the piece of paper in the case. When I start a series, I watch it through without switching to any movies, so this method is easy... though it is extremely rare that I need help remembering.

For downloaded shows (and movies), they stay in one folder, and I create another folder with shortcuts leading to each episode. The "shortcut" folder goes onto my desktop for easy access. After I watch an episode, I simply delete the shortcut.
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

He who MUST get the last word in on a pointless, endless argument doesn't win. It makes him the bigger jerk.
