Any advice on how to restructure a database or a preferred folder organizational method to reduce clutter?
I began using devonthink when I wrote my dissertation. It worked great and I can’t imagine going through that process without DT. I never settled on a single method for folder arrangement. The most helpful introduction was Rachel’s “DevonThink and History Research.” It refers to an earlier version of DT, but the methodology is sound. Like many on this forum, I have experimented with different organizational methods over the years. As a result I don’t have much of a discernible logical structure left in terms of folder arrangement, and an ever expanding database.
I can guess that @BLUEFROG will say there is no best way about this, and that it’s up to the user. Which I agree it is. Thank you Jim for your tremendous support over the years.
What I’m wondering is if anyone has encountered this same conundrum? If they went through a process of reorganizing a database after a major project? And how they approached it?
