As I looked through my bookmarks, I could readily see that I needed Start and Save containers for my bookmarks. The rest of my bookmarks fitted nicely into three other containers.
The first was Projects. In the Projects folder I gave each a project a name and any bookmarks for the specific project got placed in there. Projects have specific end dates. Compare that with my Ops category. Ongoing operations, like finances or family, do not have specific end dates. Finally, I have a category for Tasks which encompasses everything that doesn’t easily fit into Ops or Projects. Task items are usually one-off items and they normally support other Projects or Ops. For example under the Tasks folder in my bookmarks I have a Fax folder where I can find my fax bookmarks for the occasional fax I need to send.
With these five categories – Start, Tasks, Ops, Projects, Save – I have found that I can organize just about anything. Check back tomorrow and start to see how flexible this system is!
