About the Site

Welcome!

Hi! What's up? Ringofax is created as a personal workspace and an avenue for me to share my experiences and creations about planner systems and other art products. Most of the materials are free. Although you may download, modify and share them, please provide a link to this site and cite attributions to this blog when you decide to share my works.

Other than that, this site is fairly young and so might now have more content. But as I use my ring binder system (or more commonly popularized by the brand filofax), I will be able to provide more and more content, including tips, hacks and other methods I found as I journey on planners and getting organized. :)

About the Name

The name occurred to me spontaneously as I mulled over the lack of Filofaxes here in my area, Davao City, Philippines. I hunted for days in department stores, school supplies, and local shops and no one seem to even know what they are. Some who know pointed me to online shopping and scouring the net sure verified that they can only be ordered. Dismayed because I do not have a credit card (still a student here with no income), I decided to settle for local Chinese made ring binders and was happy with them. I feel awkward calling them Filofaxes so thought, hey they are ring binders, duh. So why not call them ringofax? And so I decided to use it here in my site to avoid confusion. :)

Though I do not possess a Filofax, I am still enthusiastic with this venture. And since enrolling in med school my creative juices have had not found an outlet, creating my own templates will surely stimulate my creative side once more. :) so there you go. Ring'o Fax. Or if we are to follow the "File of Facts" origin for Filofax, we have "Ring of Facts" which has a nice ring to it, don't you think? :)
