| 1286492 | 2012-07-07 09:14:00 | A fast computer. I used to worry about getting a photo filing system but in the end computers got faster and I don't really need it. I put photos in folders named by a date (eg 1207 for the current month). When searching for something I guess at the folder and the photos appear on the screen almost instantly as large thumbnail. It's easy to scroll through and if it's not there, go to the next folder. For documents, what about scribbling a couple of tags on the paper with a large felt pen, scan the document and retrieve it the same as I do |

| 1286493 | 2012-07-07 09:37:00 | I use a similar system for my documents. For instant I file all invoices under a folder called 'GST Receipts'. For example the power bill is given a constant name like "Power bill' and a numerical reference to the date it is due eg Power bill 120707 (today's date). This means that it is sorted and easy to find. I do have a lot of sub folders within my photographs for each family member, house, cats, holidays, etc. the numeric date can still be used to sort them by date. |
