The agony of choosing just the right planner/agenda for the New Year tend to put my teeth on edge. Then, I stumbled across the Moleskine comparison tool. Oh, finally!
First, you select what you are looking for, be it planner or something else, and then refine your search based on your size preference, format preference and even if you like a hardcover or softcover. In the case of my search for a new agenda for 2012, I was able to quickly narrow down the options to just four options. Then I hopped over to the online big box store and found exactly what I wanted on sale. Done and done.
This clever planner is spiral bound with short pages interspersed to allow you to see your full month-at-a-glance calendar as well as the short page week-at-a-glance. Very simple solution to a problem that has plagued paper calendar users for years. $35 and available in five different color covers.

Pinhole Press is a photo printing service that offers a few unique services that sets it apart from Shutterfly and the like. They offer an assortment of customized paper goods like planners, journals and note pads. Their typography is lovely and the layouts are simple and classic.
You can create your own weekly planner with an assortment of photos interspersed throughout the book starting at $29.99.
The photo note pads can have a photo of your choice printed on the cover or you can choose from an assortment of patterns and designs for the cover with prices starting at $12.99. Pinhole Press also offers three different journal options including a hardcover with lined pages, spiral and softcover with blank pages. Based on the paper descriptions, it sounds like they are using Mohawk Superfine Ultrawhite with eggshell finish (I’m guessing about the Mohawk part but I’m pretty sure that what it is and that’s some nice paper stock!)
Pinhole Press also carries all the products that other photo services have such as holiday photo cards, calendars, framed products and even customizable stationery, all with their fine design sense. Pricing seems pretty competitive as well.
Oh, yes! Jessica Hische created a planner for 2012. $14 from BuyOlympia.
