I use Spaces to stay organized. I have 6 desktops split up into the categories of: Safari/Firefox, PDF’s, iTunes/DVD Player, iChat, MS Office, MS Entourage. Spaces keep my workspace very clean and very organized… I also use Stickies occasionally, as well.

I stay organize by using stickies and also dashboard like the iPhone everything is at the click of my hands on a speedomoniter ( i dont care if i spelled it wrong) I also use spaces for different subjects like in 1 window i put my IM and the 2 window i put my safari and in my 3 window i put my mail and my 4 window i put anything else like random stuff.

I think that a good way to keep organized for school is adding subject folders like math and s.s. and keep all images and docs in there

I make folders inside folders inside folders, so I can always find everything. When I get lazy, Finder and Spotlight can always find everything in a flash as well! Kudos to Apple for making everything so easy to use on the Mac operating system!

I really enjoy Spotlight, because there is no need to actually store stuff in specific folders. You can type in what you want, and *BAM*, there it is. It makes the use of the computer even EASIER!

I am not organized. But I’d like to be. I think the Mac is very conducive for keeping organized though. Everything is just simpler.

I totally agree regarding Quick Look. This is the one new feature of Leopard that saves me time on a daily basis. It’s brilliantly simple.
