IndexCards

IndexCards are a common stationery product (at least in North America). They come in various sizes, and one of the most common sizes is also an excellent size for user stories and for CRC cards. These are 8" wide by 5" high (20.5 cm. wide by 12.5 cm. high). They are intended for semi-permanent storage in little filing boxes, so are constructed of heavy paper. Generally, one side is printed with ruled lines, and the other side is blank.

Note: in Europe you may have to make do with bits of slate, and the lack of pink lines. -- OliBye :-)

Index cards are among the nominees for Jolt awards! http://www.sdmagazine.com/jolts/press_r1-29-02.htm

Any recommendations on introducing the use of CrC cards in a BigDesignUpFront? environment?

Open up the cardboard box used to ship the expensive CASE tool.Throw away the disks and manuals inside. Use the box to store the index cards.
