Yay Nay Hanging folders

I read in a GTD article that hanging folders were a no no. I don't see why these would be a problem in the 43 folders or GTD system.

I've got hanging folders in...

Submitted by mwr on May 7, 2007 - 3:36pm.

I've got hanging folders in my general reference filing cabinet, but only because they came with the office and I don't have much reason to change them out. But they don't add much to the process. One manila folder goes in each hanging folder. More discussion here.
