Recipes, event planning (think birthday parties, graduation parties, baby showers, weddings, etc.), music, shopping, favorite blogs… you name it, anything you go to do online, you want a place to keep track of things you’d like to be able to find and view again later. There are numerous options and they all were developed with people like me in mind, detail-oriented, borderline-obsessive planners. (The Chef would probably disagree about the “borderline” part!)
When I first learned about Clipix and its Multiboards feature, my mind immediately jumped to my daughter’s 2nd birthday party, coming up in August. Yes, I love to begin planning well in advance, or at least gathering ideas. So I signed up to explore Clipix. I was taken in right away by its user-friendliness and by how quickly a new user can figure out how it works.
I especially love the Multiboards feature, which allows you to group different clipboards onto one bigger one. For example, I created a clipboard for my daughter’s upcoming 2nd birthday party and then grouped the following clipboards onto the bigger one: Theme Ideas, The Cake, Food Ideas, and Wish List. Here’s what it looks like:
You can make your boards public or private, a big plus for me, and this one is public, so click here if you’d like to get a better look! You will see I’ve clipped ideas for one of several themes: Elmo, Tea Party, and Princess. The wish list are gift ideas I wanted to remember when it comes time to decide what we will be giving her.
One really neat feature of Clipix is Syncboards, which allows you to clip collaboratively with your friends or family. When anyone adds a clip to the Syncboard, everyone else you collaborate with will see it in real-time. My first thought was how awesome this would be when planning a wedding! If a bride wants to consider ideas others in her wedding party come across, they could all share them through the Syncboards she set up for her wedding planning. There’s also a place for comments, so she could get feedback right underneath the item from the groom, her mother, her bridesmaids, wedding planner, anyone involved with planning the wedding.
Or what about family events where everyone is contributing a dish for a meal, like a reunion, Christmas, or Thanksgiving? The host could clip the main dish, and as each person decides what they are contributing, they could add it to the board. This way, everyone can see the meal coming together, and it would be easy for those still undecided about what to bring to know what’s needed and what would coordinate well with what’s already being contributed.
As you can see, there are so many ways you could use Clipix to keep track of your favorite things online, whether it’s recipes, blogs, music, products or articles you’ve read. I would love to know how you could see yourself using Clipix or any other ideas you may have thought of while reading this post.
