I organize my projects inside my Documents folder. Specifically, my main folders are:

~Documents/MSc ~Documents/Projects ~Documents/Documents

the MSc folder goes like that:

~MSc/A/class ----> letter (A, B, or C) is the semester, and then the class (simplified of course)

inside each class the structure is:

~class1/class_material ----> where is the documents (pdfs, slides etc) provided by the instructor and scanned notes if any ~class1/Project(s) ----> where are the projects for the class.

Each project has 2-3 subfolders: ~Project1/src ----> source code (different approaches for the same project go in here in seperate folders) ~Project1/documents ----> reports, presentations etc, and a txt with refereneces to papers, books and websites used. ~Project1/Results ----> if i have to do tests comparing approaches, models etc I keep my results in here In the root folder of each project I keep the project requirments

My /Projects folder has the same approach

My Documents folder, for now is divided in two folders: ebooks and papers, and inside those folders are just bunch of files (with proper filenames, though, so searching is working) --- My Photos folder goes like that:

~Photos/year/month/event

each "event" folder has the raw files and an "exported" folder where the processed photos are. If I do panoramas, there is also an extra folder, called "panoramas": ~event/exported ~event/panoramas --- my Downloads folder is just a temp folder, so there is no need to waste time there. --- My Desktop is always empty (and icons hidden)
