Happy New Year!

“For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

On the personal front:

  • Clear the bits of paper off your desk by recording your to-do's and lists in one centralized place — Personal Knowbase!

  • Record your household inventory. Prepare for emergencies by including values and links to scanned receipts for insurance purposes.

  • List birthdays and other events for the coming year. Set reminders a few days before an event to help you prepare.

  • Record your hardware and electronics serial numbers and your software registration information.

  • Catalog your videos, using genres, directors, and favorite actors as keywords.

On the work front:

  • Collect your miscellaneous project notes into one Knowbase file so you can spend your project time making progress, not looking for bits of information.

  • Document processes and common questions that come up in your work. The next time someone asks you how to do something, save time by just giving them a copy of your saved documentation.

  • Catalog websites you visit frequently. Create a Knowbase file with an article for each site, including login information, deep URLs that you visit often, submission information, and a log of your important activity at that site.

  • Archive your email messages. Use keywords for subjects, major vendors, and sources.

  • Import your meeting notes. Add keywords to index them by participants and topics.

Use Personal Knowbase to organize all your notes and keep everything you want to remember.
