park a half-formed idea for next month

ideas have a way of arriving when you're busy. drop them into a future date in alligator so you don't lose them — flesh out the brief when you have time.

3 steps~2 min

1
open the month after this one
click the forward arrow at the top of the calendar.
2
click any day and add a card
leave the brief short — a sentence is enough. set status to idea so future-you knows it isn't drafted yet.
3
come back when you have time
scan your idea cards before each planning session. flesh out the brief and bump the status to ready when you're ready to publish.
tip
use the calendar as a parking lot. an idea on the calendar is way harder to lose than an idea in a notes app.
