How’d ya like the echo?

Whatever gets the point across!

For your reading pleasure, here are the top 10 ways to know you’re on info overload:
1. Your machine crawls at a snail’s pace because you consistently have 34 tabs open at once
2. Out of those 34 tabs, you can follow the trail because you opened new tabs for every link in the previous one.
3. You find 23 different copies of The Science of Getting Rich on your hard drive, all named different names.
4. You download that latest e-book to your desktop because you want “easy access” but you can’t find it among all of the other files you intended to organize.
5. Speaking of your desktop, you don’t bother using pictures as backgrounds any longer since you know you won’t be able to make out the picture anyway due to the massive amount of icons and files blanketing your desktop.
6. You download anything that is F-R-E-E just in case there may be something of value.
7. You couldn’t find that file if your life depended on it once it’s downloaded (it may be hiding with your missing socks!)
8. When you try to download something, it says it’s already there and asks you if you’d like to replace the old file and you think to yourself, “Hmmm, I don’t remember downloading that already.”
9. You just know that program that cost you a mint is downloaded in this folder. Ok, so maybe this one. Ok, must be this one. (followed by heavy sighs and that oh, so dejected look)
10. Your Inbox hasn’t seen double digits in years. Come to think of it, it hasn’t seen triple digits in a while either!

You noticed this isn’t my typical blog post? After realizing the ridiculous amount of files (majority unopened) on my hard drive, I thought I’d take a silly look at a common problem.

For some reason, I feel like doing some spring cleaning…
