This is the best organizing book I ever read. It's easy to unterstand, easy to follow and gets you started immediately. After reading the relevant chapters I cleaned my worst corner of my flat in about an hour! Great book, the only one you need if you want to organize your stuff.

Worth a read even for a few good checklists and tips on organizing information to avoid overload. From chapter “Taming Technology” (page 291): - Be realistic: you can't read everything, so limit to publications you read regularly and thoroughly. - File articles by subject rather than by publication; "articles from Business Week should go in a "Financial Planning" category rather than "Business Week." - Collect your reading material in one place, clean it out weekly, and don't let it overflow. - Bookmark online references as the always-updated source and get rid of your paper copy (this is probably obvious to digital natives, but good for others to remember).
