I need to get back in the rhythm of things so I am going to start a new segment of tips and recommendations
My first will be to DELETE UNNECESSARY FILES
Many times I will see a users computer with too many files on it. Your comp should be neat, both outside and file wise.
I’m sure you, as you’re reading this, have a ton of files but don’t even want to bother cleaning it up.
Here’s a tip: SORT BY KIND/TYPE
By doing this in any folder, you can clearly and easily see which files you do not need (zip files im lookin at you). It may sound stupid and you may say, “of course I know that!”, but do you actually do it?
Do this and I guarantee you’ll keep your folders clean. You’ll only have the type of files you deem important, and from then you’ll start cleaning house.
Who needs .zip files anyways after they are uncompressed?
I like it. Especially, clean up your desktop. There should be almost nothing. Btw, I have some tech breakdowns you should do to dumb things down for us.
ill show you how i do. maybe this should be Q and A, like, “james, how do you deal with file cleanup”?
A: “im glad you mentioned that Casey. What I do is sort by Type…”(etc…)
Here are my 1st 2:
1) Easy breakdown of difference and real world analogy of what a server, firewall, hosting service, etc.
2) What and why you use JavaScript, C++, Ruby, HTML5, etc.
i cleaned out 18 GB from my internal hard drive today.
feel like its just scratching the surface…
