Remember those hastily scrawled notes of yesteryear, slipped to your friend just as the teacher's back was turned? The folks at Moleskine do. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the text message, Moleskine has reintroduced the concept of 'shooting' your friend a message with their classic notebooks.

Featuring a graduated cover, these Moleskine editions let you measure how far you can catapult a note, using the notebook's band as a makeshift slingshot. Created by Italian designer Pietro Corraini, the SMS (Shooting Method System) tribute packs also include a set of pre-written notes, including a coy 'Call me', to use as ammunition. Think of it as the grown up version of the 'I like you' note you sent your 3rd grade crush.
