...cleaning out one a day should get them in a reasonable amount of time.
How I did it: It didn't take very long, maybe 5 hours. My computer was a complete mess and I'm a bit of a control freak. I had all my photos in one big folder and unnamed, schoolwork and random documents all piled together, and i was using WMP which tbh is NOT a good idea for keeping music organised. So i switched to iTunes (which i LOVE) and that put all my music files into nice little folders by artist name. Then I put all my photos into folders according to occasion, and then people. Then i renamed them all because it looks better :) Put all of my documents into categories: school>subjects. Chat logs>contacts. stories, plans etccc.
now everythign is so easy to find, i love it! Makes usuing My documents a joy :).
Lessons & tips: The more stuff you have the longe rit will take so make sur eyou have enought ime to do it all... doind it all at once and getting it out of the way is often a good idea cos if you give up its difficult to go back.
Oh... and iTunes REALLY helps with organising :)
Resources: iTunes ftw.

I just deleted over 30 discs from my itunes that I don’t need in there. Sadly enough I am sure that in a few months they will be replaced with new CD’s. Plus I’ve got at least 10-15 that I never even loaded in. Is 18.8 days worth of music really too much to have on your PC? Maybe I just have too many pictures on my computer.
I took all my discs into work and downloaded most of them onto my work computer (we have some sick memory). I am going to organize all of it there and chuck some stuff and burn new discs. I still have crap from my home computer that I need to disc but I didn’t have any free ones.
I’ve got too much stuff on my itunes and too many pictures in my picture folder and am always low on memory. I need to:
1. Skim down my itunes
2. Disc all the pictures that are in my picture folder and then delete them
3. Download and disc the rest of my pix from my camera
4. Scan all my pix from the pre-digital camera age and disc them
5. Scan all important documents and disc them
6. Scan or retype and disc copies of stuff I’ve written (pre-computer)
7. Take all my discs and make a list of what is on them, see what I don’t need anymore and reorganize them
8. Back up my hard drive!!!!!
9. Take all discs that have pictures and important documents and irreplacable stuff on them and make additional copies to stick in a safety deposit box
