Filing System Woes

Been doing the GTD thing for some time now... But one thing that bugs me is filing (paper). I have the labeler (love it). But the manilla folders in the pendaflex hanging folders just does not look good. Some folders sink in to far and it makes flipping through my files difficult. Most files I can only see half of the nice, pretty label. It seems like in 2006, there would be a fast, easy, clean way of dealing with paper. I'm going to post pictures next time... I'd love to see others filings to see better ways of making it easy and "clean".

Someone (sorry -- I can't remember who, but it might be mcnicks?) staples his hanging file folders at the bottom, making them just a tiny bit "shallower" so that the labels stick out on top. Sounds good to me!

Woah, that just might do it. I'll give that a try. Thanks for the tip!

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
