Organizational tip
Because I work in communications, I am always looking through magazines and referencing recent articles. I often use my laptop at the coffee table so by organizing my magazines by publication and date, I can always find what I need. After I read an issue I decide if it is worth keeping. The constant influx of new issues forces me to evaluate and edit my collection weekly so I avoid saving too many. Ultimately a few magazines I find very useful will move to a filing cabinet or the pages (with recipes, articles, etc.) will be torn out and filed and the original magazines thrown out. I also like having a revolving display to look at on the coffee table which otherwise would just accumulate junk.
