For the most part I use Microsoft OneNote. I have separate folders for personal life, hobbies, software I've written and clients. With lots of sections and tabs. Works very, very well for me.

I don't have a degree or 2 year certificate or anything. And yet I've been doing software development for the past 30 years. I'll never work as an employee for large companies or governments but then I couldn't stand the culture anyhow. I learned to program at the local college while in high school on punched cards. Programming is a passion.

Please cite the numbers proving that shipping light bulbs from China costs more than the savings. Oh, and where do you think incandescent light bulbs come from? Oh yeah, China. Idiot.
