The All-Rounder’s Perfect Companion
How Gyasi Calhoun, a software engineer and content creator, uses his reMarkable to seamlessly blend digital convenience with the tactile satisfaction of writing on paper, enhancing his productivity and creativity.
The best of both worlds
“Why do I love my reMarkable?” front-end software engineer and content creator Gyasi Calhoun asks. “It gives off this vibe of notebook meets tablet. It’s the perfect blend of having technology, but not having too much” he adds. So less technology but not none, a happy medium: if a notebook and a tablet had a baby. The synergy just feels right.
Proactive productivity
This balance is particularly important for someone as busy as Gyasi. His days are filled with responsibilities from writing code and supporting customers, to designing websites, and on top of that — creating content. So the right tool is essential for success.
“A typical day for me is pretty hectic,” the YouTuber explains. “Using the reMarkable in the morning allows me to be more proactive. I'm juggling so many things, and reMarkable plays a major role in my day-to-day, because it keeps me organized,” he says. “I can easily find notes and documents that I'm looking for.”
“Using the reMarkable in the morning allows me to be more proactive.”
Along with a tidy mind, his reMarkable can often be seen in pictures online, its sleek minimalism fitting in noiselessly among other possessions in his high-rise New York apartment. But it’s that familiar paper feel that makes him keep coming back to his reMarkable. It’s safe to say, it keeps him ticking along. “Having this digital device that gives me such a tactile pen-to-paper type of experience keeps me more accountable and aware of my goals,” he adds.
Carefree thoughts
And then there’s the versatility of his paper tablet. Especially when it’s time for creative thinking to let loose. “With reMarkable, I have a notebook for more free thought,” Gyasi explains. Especially when “thinking of a cool video idea I want to do.” Whether he’s brainstorming ideas for new content or engaging in other kinds of creative work, his reMarkable offers flexibility that goes beyond the limitations of traditional paper. “You can do things on the reMarkable that you simply can't do with paper. I couldn't be happier with it,” he points out. Finally, it must be gratifying for a tech aficionado to discover a device that aligns so intuitively with his thoughts.
