Also check out the PocketMod. It has similar foldings, is customizable with "mods" and has its own website since 2005: http://www.pocketmod.com/

I got the idea from the pocketmod, but mine has more pages (more cuts) and is smaller. Or at least, that was the way it was when I last checked its website.

So you basically forked a piece of paper!

More or less :) I wanted more pages, and I like it smaller, too.

That reminds me of a Flash calendar/todo application that had a super successful "sign up for out beta" demo a few years ago. Unfortunately the name completely escapes me. Basically they had made a video demo of what the product would be, the Internet went crazy over it, the product came along little by little but never met real success.

The PocketMod reminds me of it because with that product you could print your calendar in a similar fashion.

Does that ring a bell to anybody?

I also used that Flash thing a long while ago. I think it had some relation with the PocketMod site, but I don't remember exactly (and I don't have the bookmark, this was in my Windows days and when the PC died I didn't bother copying bookmarks).
