Organising your desktop
| posted at 11:11:38 By Flipping Heck! | Posted In GTD/Productivity |
Update: Please see below for a new version
I was sick and tired of having icons stuck all over my desktop (I'm a sucker for downloading/saving stuff to the desktop for sorting "later") so I've designed some wallpaper to help me organise and manage the files on my desktop:
(click to view larger version)
The page is split up into 6 sections:
- My PC - My computer, My Documents etc
- To Install - Programs to install on the machine
- To Delete - Unwanted programs/icons
- To Read/review - Documents that require my attention
- My Links - Frequently used links
- Work In Progress - Things I'm currently doing
You can download a 1024x768 (yes I know but I have a crap laptop at work) version (JPEG format) from here
Update: As requested by Karen, I have moved the "To Delete" and "Work in progress" text up so it's visible on smaller screens you can dowload the new version from here - aren't I nice eh? ;)
