Help me organize my music.

cleversimon:

I have 45 GB of music in my iTunes library. You may consider that massive or miniscule, but you have to agree it poses a bit of an organizational problem.

I don’t really use the Genre tag; maybe the solution lies there. Maybe I should spend a weekend constructing playlists (but what kind of playlists?). Or maybe you have a better idea.

How do you keep your music library organized?

My advice regarding library organization is always unpopular and always ignored, but hear me out here: delete most of your music.

One of the fantastic things about Twitter clients is how easy it is for users to jump from one to another. Just type in a username and password and off you go. It’s possible for anyone to write a Twitter client nowadays and have the opportunity to completely blow everyone else out of the water. It’s very exciting. Very democratic. And it certainly seems like everyone and their mother is trying to do just that.

You can also Google “Hotels in the Boondocks (or whatever city) area. Then start looking at websites. Look for key phrases. In the list of features “In room temperature control” should not be on the top. In fact, it shuld not BE there, if the place is at all decent. That, along with say, Sheets, ought to be a given.
