Packing Lists
Okay, so based on the recommendation of some filkers I know I just got an app called "Packing Pro." One of the things I think is cool about it is that items are organized into categories, subcategories, and items, and you can add a new entry at any level.
Given its thoroughness on other subjects I was kind of surprised it didn't already have a category for musical instruments but it didn't so I made a category "musical" and a subcategory "mandolin" and then entered as items mandolin, spare strings, picks, capo, tuner, nail clippers (and I still need to go back and add "spare tuner batteries".) Now, when I click on the subcategory "mandolin" everything I need for the care and feeding of a mandolin at a con is automagically added to the list. I did the same for the octave mandolin. *chortle* I did the same for the Zoom H4n (I think I added it under gadgets rather than musical; perhaps I should re-do it for musical. Must think on this.)
Speaking of thinking on this, I call and conjure the wisdom of the Internets! Do you have things you find it particularly useful to bring to cons? Categories and sub-categories I might want to add?
