hey, I've just thought of this now.. so how about.. since I'm pretty lazy right now to make any custom grids, how about making a "GridBuilder" that can easily make some grids..  ? Where you could select regions in a window (representing the desktop), as well as set regions..

wow nice find, very good read. I've had my time with thinking about good orginzation methods, etc. file hiearchirse, the use of tagging, how to categorize by, type, company name, software name, task description, etc. and have spent quite (probably too much) time worrying about how i organize my files instead of getting shit done.. so in the end i think orngazingin is overated, and people these days have too much data than needed.. any thing they really need is close by in their memory (head)..
if u wanna get too carried away with heierachy, its never gonna work, you wont be able to sort the files.. u have to put into cosideration the file type (mpg, mp3, doc, zip, jpg, etc.), weather it is actual "working data" or program setup files.
And then you have the filesystem limitations on Windows for example, if you are organinzing by file purpose
symlinks, hardlinks, etc. ofcourse on *nix, it's not much of a thing.
u also have to put into considerationm, are you catergorizng for your self? or others? very important question in terms of sorting alot of content.. are u sorthing this repository for your self for the future for easy retrieveal when you need it? or away you think some day some one might find your collection of things useful.. people organize things differently,
this is a rough draft.. will clean up later (missing parts of text). it's what ive come to find any ways while orgnazing, software, source code, backups, media, etc.

yeah that's true, trolls wouldn't even last a week.. and maybe the fact that DC doesn't get much of them signing up is because the main thing new people see is the "donation" part of DC, then all the calls to actions about signing up to the forum, donating, etc. and by that time they are thinkg wtf and are usually out [therefor not bothering to sign up, and make a post or 10]
that would pretty much turn away most trolls/trouble makers..
Plus I think because the website design is sorta old school .. lol
People who are into their software and coding usually reside at DC longterm because they appreciate it.
