Sharing my Project Management adventures and some tips.
I like to keep my articles brief and to the point.

The whiteboard is a Project Manager's canvas to record information and get a visual reminder everyday of the important due dates, to do list, notes, and whatever you feel can be on public display in your office for co-workers to see.
I list all the projects that I'm working on with a circle next to the project name. The circle will be filled in using the appropriate stoplight color to indicate the current status of the project.
I can go on and on listing the benefits of having your own whiteboard in your office.

It's a simple and great tool. I use it for sticky notes and stand-up meetings.

I miss my white board too ... Now my white board is the Note Pad
Thanks Najam, Sante & Rami for your comments.
I just love whiteboards. Your imagination is your only limit on what you can do with it.
