Simplify the amount of folders you use by organizing your documents into folders by type, and only creating albums, groupings, or project folders when necessary.
- There are a million and one ways to arrange files and folders on disk.
- Some might argue that spending a moment even thinking about it in the age of desktop search is unnecessary.
- That may be true, but some semblance of order will clear your desktop and your mind and make you "ready for anything."
- Over the years I've come up with a six folder structure for "My Documents" which I create on every computer I use without fail.
- This scheme accommodates every file I might come across, keeps my desktop clear, smoothly fits in with an automated backup system and also makes command line file wrangling a breeze.
