Document Managment on a Mac
Simon | Mar 3 2008
Hey guys What's your weapon of choice against a messy "Documents" Folder? How do you manage to find the right File in the shortest amount of time possible. Do you use Apps like yojimbo, journaler, eagle filer, devonthink, doc haven (you name it...)? Just post a short description of what you do with your important files. Of course Tips, Tricks and any sort of recommendations are welcome. I thought about an applescript, which creats a folder in "Documents" with the same name as the selected project in omnifocus, and link the folder to the project. So I can store all Files connected to a project in the newly created "Projectfolder". I normally do not just store files, of course I have files like Videos, Music, Pictures, Backups to "just store", but they aren't that hard to haldle (thanks to iLife). Files normally have a relation to a project or action I have to do. And if I work on a project (stored in omnifocus), I want fast access to the files I need for this project. so thanks for your ideas! simon 4 Comments
