Trying to get my computer files in some semblance of order

One of the things I want to do in the coming year is devise a uniform system for getting all my computer files in some form of order.

I'd like to be able to sort them by categories, mostly, but whatever I try to come up with is too long and defeats my purposes...

Can anyone give me some ideas what I can do?

Cranking

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

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