Different purpose than a whiteboard, because its much smaller and not really for sharing with a group. But I've used a Rocketbook 'reusable notebook' off and on for a while for any random notes at my desk. I used to just fill up a whiteboard by my desk with random notes instead of wasting paper, but now I scribble things in the Rocketbook instead. You write in it with an erasable pen, and can clean the pages off with a bit of water and a cloth.

I just flip to a blank page and write down anything i need. Then once in a while i go through and erase all the pages and start fresh again. I like that i can write very small and detailed - unlike with a whiteboard. But it also isn't a complete waste of paper. (and its still physical, unlike taking notes on an iPad)

there’s the one you can microwave too, the rocketbook wave iirc?

It’s a neat concept, but I think the microwaveable ones have a shorter longevity. They say it can only be microwaved around 5 times. I suspect they just work because when heated, the erasable ink becomes invisible.

On the normal pocketbooks, the ink actually washes off with just a bit of water. It’s very similar to a whiteboard in that regard. I know I’ve cleaned out my notebook more than five times, it’s still basically good as new. Except one page where I accidentally used a normal non-erasable pen.
