A better way to organise your desktop

November 29th, 2007 · Posted in: Productivity·

I don’t know if this qualifies as a GTD (Getting Things Done) tool, but I would like to call it that because it makes things easy for me. I have always preferred to have a clutter-free desktop and this "Layered Desktop" not only does keep it neat but also a bit more focused and productive.

You can use it to organise your icons in groups, like:

  • the paper area for work stuff;
  • the aluminium plate for personal projects;
  • the wooden desk for yet to be categorised elements, like finished or in-progress downloads.
  • the post-it for urgent elements (I usually have the files I am currently working on in here).

Download the high-res file and instructions on how to fit it to your desktop.
