About this list:

While we may not be there yet, everywhere I look people are moving towards more organized living. That doesn't necessarily mean striving for perfection or being a domestic goddess - it's more about making small adjustments to make life run more smoothly. Here are some of my favorite tools for moving in that direction.

Avoid the frustration of missing keys, lost cell phones and forgotten lists with the sturdy, canvas Doorganizer. Hang it on the front door to keep your keys, sunglasses and shopping list nearly impossible to miss, and hang one on your office door to keep your PDA and mobile phone in easy reach. A strip on the back can hold paperwork, notepads and mail.
They’re also great for keeping kids organized. Hang one from the bedroom door to keep handheld toys, music players and homework right where they can find them.

Keep cords out of site, charge your small electronics (phone, pda, mp3 player etc) and also store change or jewelry on top. Finally a real place for those electronics to live instead of always wondering where you are going to plug them in to recharge or what happened to the wire.

Belkin Mini Surge Protector with USB Charger

3 people recommended this item

Description

this is one of those products that seems so obviously simple and useful that the truly amazing thing is why didn't someone think of it before now???

A mini surge protector with both AC and USB slots means that you can recharge just about anything on the go. It looks perfect to me for airports and hotels, but I plan on having a few around my house, too, because it just makes so much sense.

Brilliant! (via Ohgizmo.com)

Picasa

First to recommend

Description

If you are like most digital camera users and have files and files full of photos, but spend way to much time looking for just the right one, or if you have several different digital image programs on your computer, maybe it's time to simplify with Picasa.

One of the many free Google tools available on the web, Picasa is the easiest and most intuitive/user friendly program I have found to organize and manage digital images. Photo thumbnails are always visible and are listed by the date they were taken (and you can change details like this if you find that your photos were stored with the wrong dates attached). There is a very cool "timeline" feature that lets you scroll through your images by date. You can tag items so they are easily searchable, create web albums to share with friends and family, manage the printing process, upload and order prints online. It is a very feature rich program.

In addition to the organizational features, Picasa also includes all the basic photo editing tools that most people need for everyday use. There is even a magic "auto correct" button that lets Picasa decide what to change for you. But don't worry - Picasa always saves the unedited original for you in case you don't like the edits you make.

I can't say enough good things about this program - I don't know what I'd do with out it.
