Socks · 04-20-2013, 01:11 PM

I'm a messy guy, I have plastic bags full of receipts, nothing is organized.

So I bought a Fujitsu Scansnap for way too much money, and I'm scanning all my old paper documents and whatnot and shredding them. Afterwards the plan is to send it all to Evernote and have them live there. Evernote will OCR my docs so I can search them.

Anyone else done this?

My next problem is going to be renaming and organizing all the docs... Any strategies on that? I might just do 2013 and fuck the rest. If I need something from the "old" pile, I'll rename the ones I need, rather than doing everything.
