# Writable Whiteboard Timepieces Never Forget Your To-Do List with the Memo Clock By Nicole Ballantyne-Choo | Published 2013-08-31 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/memo-clock References: [fancy](http://fancy.com/things/228409068803327199/Ceramic-Memo-Clock) & [dignovelty](http://www.dignovelty.com/2013/03/100-handmade-desktop-ceramic-memo-clock.html) The memo clock is a helpful way to keep track of your daily tasks. This clock doubles as a whiteboard so you can write a list right on the clock. Before going to bed a great idea would be to write what needs to get done the next day. As soon as you wake up, you'll see what you've written and won't forget something important like a doctor's appointment or an anniversary. The clock comes with an erasable pen, so when plans change you can easily update your list. The clock itself is minimalist and beautiful. The bright red hands stands out against the milky white background. To not overcrowd the block with too much information, only the numbers 12, three six and nine are written. A neat idea would be to write down an appointment and draw a line to what time it takes place on the clock. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 62% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Interactive Timekeeping:** Clocks that double as whiteboard to-do lists offer opportunities for interactive timekeeping and productivity tools. - **Minimalist Design with Added Functionality:** The memo clock demonstrates an opportunity for minimalist designs with added functionality, updating classic designs for modern times. - **Smart Home Task Management Devices:** Writable whiteboard timepieces provide opportunities for the creation of smart home task management devices, offering a modern twist on classic tools. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** Consumer electronics companies can incorporate writable whiteboard technology into their clocks to offer productivity-focused devices for consumers. - **Home Decor:** Home decor companies can design minimalist clocks with added functionality, providing solutions that combine aesthetic appeal and practicality. - **Office Supplies:** Office supply companies can create writable whiteboard timepieces for productive task management in the workplace, improving employee efficiency and organization. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Minimal Meeting Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cast-concept.md) - [Subtle Lifestyle-Changing Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superlocal-clock.md) - [Paper-Free To-Do Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eminder.md) - [Digital Handwritten Reminder Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/almo-concept-design.md) - [Connected Simplicity-Focused Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-rubiks-cube-clock.md) - [Intentionally Foggy Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kehai-clock.md) - [Thoughtfully-Designed Display Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robin-day-clock.md) - [Visualized Professional Time Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tempo-time-tracker.md) - [Calm Reading Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/novellamate.md)
