Which is neater, your desk or your computer?

Ha I like the question. My answer is my desk..cause I do not have one.I use my ktichen table as my work place. And since I have a family of 5, I need to clean it off at lteast 3 times a day to eat! And my computer....well it is a lap top, held together with tape! Yes, duck tape. It looks horrible, but it works. So, I guess my computer is messier than the desk. Thanks for the great question, made me ponder my computer situation! JO

hahaha, My husband and i have a discussion on organization at least once a week. I wish i could help you. I, myself, have asked God to help me become more organized. My kitchen is neat, my bathroom is neat, my bedroom is neat, my computer desk is in the livingroom~ looks like it was hit by a tornado! I try to arrange it and two days later its the same. All 5 members of my family use this area. So you can imagine how hard it must be to keep it clean. Good luck. I will keep comming back to this to see if i can get some tips, too!

My desk is not so neat, but computer(desktop) is less cleaner than my desk. Think about it and lt me know what I mean.

I used to be the most organized person on earth. Then came the internet. I would much rather spend time on the internet and places like myLot than to tidy the house or clean my desk! I am a college professor so there are stacks of papers that need to be graded all over my desk. There are also books, notes, bills and everything imaginable. The files on my computer however neatly organzied! I can get to anything within seconds. Funny how that works huh? I had never thought about it that way! Tricks for staying organized? I'm afraid I would have to call my internet service provider and have my service cancelled in order to ever be neat again!

I have an amaire (spelling?) for my computer. On the inside of the doors I glued cork. I now just tack my notes to the cork board. When the door is shut, you can not see the notes. When I open the door, they are easliy accessed. It has made it so much neater and less cluttered. Before I had the cork, I had sticky notes everywhere. They would fall and I would loose my info and it was a mess. I now have a little dish with thumb tacks in it. I have another one with paperclips and pens, pencils, glue stick and sissors in it.

all of my files are in my computer. all of my files are digital. my computer is very neat, from my documents, to my desktop, everything is perfectly neat.

It is really nice and strange question,very nice question.My computer I will keep always neet.

Both are pretty neat actually. The files on my computer are pretty organized and I usually can find everything I need too within a few seconds. My desk is rather organized too, everything in it's place. Except for a few of my desk drawers. Those are pretty packed but I really can't do anything about that.

LOL - my desk is ALWAYS a mess at home ... I just seem to accumulate crap on the desk, around the desk and in the desk!! Although when i'm at work i usually manage to keep that one tidy. I'm thinking it's 'cos i give that one a big tidy before i go to lunch and at the end of the day ... but i'm not sure. My computer is organised so that i know where things are but i still have a lot of files that just sit in the my documents section with no home. At least if i can't find stuff on the PC i can always do a search and let it do the hard work for me!!

My desk sits in a room ontop which my computer sits. My computer is definitely more organized. Due to the fact that I store things in files in the computer. In the room where it sits there are boxes of papers that sit in the corner and those are receipts and paperwork that I feel I need to keep. I think I have acquired my mom's habits. She is a pack rat and can't stand to throw anything away. I am the same way but not quite as bad. But back to your question and I would definitely have to say my computer is more well organized.

If you looked at my desk you'd think it was a pile of papers. If you looked at my computer you'd think I was an extremely organized person

My desk is such a mess. I have an organizer on my desk and its still a mess. Papers everywhere. I like to print stuff. theres a ruler, microphone, pencil case, coffee cup, candy wrappers. Pepsi can., Sims games. I could go on and on. lol. My computer at least has files and folders to put stuff in. Wonder if i should get a Candy bar wrapper folder? lol

Haha this is such an interesting question! My computer is usually neater than my desk. Whenever I'm procrastinating, I always go through my files and organize them or delete them. That's hardly ever the case with my desk! If it gets unbearable to the point where I have no room to work, I'll just move the mess to my bed and then back again when I'm done. There are times when I just can't stand it anymore that my desk is neater than my computer but those times are few and far apart.

well neither of them atttimes but my mind is which keep even messy things organised and handy:))

I have a computer desk that I bought a long time ago and I've tried to keep it clean but it's an absolute nightmare. It's a good thing that it is hidden behind the couch in our living room so that when people come to visit they can't see it unless of course they walk over to it. I have to seriously get with it and clean up all the you-know-what on it and around it. Thanks for bringing this to my attention; perhaps I won't put it off any longer...lol

I sure hope I didn't respond to this discussion alreay; can't remember as I've responded to so many already...I wrote to mylot suggesting that they may try to figure out a way so that we'd know if we'd responded to one or not... It just takes forever to go through all the 'discussions replied to', if you have many... I was so embarrassed today, as our friends that are moving to Maryland came over and I cleaned up the house because I knew they were coming...Well, the only thing I didn't clean was my computer area, and wouldn't you know it, Dave needed to use my computer and I had to straighten things up before he could use it... Aargh..! That'll teach me...but you just never know...

I am so embarrased...! Our friends came over today; they sold their house and have a new one in Maryland already...They came over to say goodbye and I cooked them breakfast, as it would take them 10 hours to get home, once they left... I had cleaned the house up because I knew they'd be over in the morning but I didn't straighten up my computer area; it's hidden behind our couch and unless you actually walk toward it, you'd never really see it... Well, our friend needed to use my computer to look someting up with his mortgage, because they couldn't close for some reason and I was so embarrased...I ran over to straighten everything up...He didn't have to use it after all because he found the paperwork he needed but, still.... Lesson learned...I need to keep my area clean, just in case...lol

I just wanted to be the 100th response to this to be honest. DOn't have much to say on this discussion except I keep my desk tidy cos it is so small. Please don't report me. Merry 100th response

im generally an organised person. my desk may get a lil messy at times however i try to keep it in order to prevent losing things. my trick to staying organised is to remember that if u dont clean it now u'll have to clean it later and plus if u keep everything organised it'll b easier to find / understand. i hope i answered u question.. if so, pls rate ! thanks ! =) take care !!

well my computer is definitely neater. my desk is mostly a mess. all the bits and pieces are strewn over my desk. while my computer is at least safe from bits and pieces
