Yes, I definitely do.  Both my husband and I have crazy work schedules so we have resorted to writing down which days we are working and what time we have to leave.  That way we both know what the other has to do the next day and if we can take the "cheap" car to work or not  I just am not used to using a computer for this and the calendar is always "on" when it is hanging on the frig.

Yes I still use paper calendars.  My sister makes a family calendar each year and gives one to each sibling at Christmas time.  It's most valuable for all sorts of events.  I love it.

I still use a calendar. I keep it on my desk at home so that I can write down important things I need to remember.

Even with all the technology I still keep everything backed up on paper.  ;)

I certainly do.  Helps me keep track of pay days, time off, appointments, etc.

Yes I use them at wall art also.  It brightens up my desk area at work.

Yes, I think they are easier to take a quick glance to see if anything important is going on that day (or even that week, esp. if it's something you may want to prepare for prior to the actual date). With online calendars (including those on a phone) are more cumbersome to use just to look at the week for special things. Plus the paper calendars usually have interesting art/pictures so it doubles as wall decoration as well.

Yes, definitely. I hate the over-reliance on electronic gadgets, and often low-tech things like calendars are much easier and quicker to use.

Yep, I have a few paper calendars.  One in my kitchen just because it's a convenient place I'm often in when I'm planning household chores/maintenance.  I keep a stand-up calendar on my home office desk for convenient checking of the date and scrolling for future dates when planning work meetings.  And I have a big desk calendar I use to note down everything - including hobby stuff like recording premieres of tv shows for a contest I'm in.

Way easier to see everything in pen/paper at a glance.

I use my phone calendar to record appointments I make while away from the house, but then immediately get them transferred to my desk calendar.
