Hi. I am a paper guy too. Until this thing hits the market wide, gets lots of positive reviews and has its costs reduced, does anyone have tips for managing lots of real paper? I feel like some organization tricks could help ease dealing with paper problems.

I use paper to sketch out thoughts and draw diagrams, and I don't want unlimited papers. 5 pages a day is enough for me. I wish I could say I read books - I don't. So I only have to manage papers on which I write things and refer to them quickly whenever possible. It works fine, but if someone has tips to help, please share. Thanks.

For a long time I tried to come up with systems for paper. Now I switched to a simpler model: my (only) clipboard I used for the project I focus one, eg. writing my master thesis. I also bought two thin soft binders. The green one is for research and ideas highly related to my current research or projects. I put some metadata on some of the sheet themselves or on small papers to remind quickly what a sheet is about. The red one is for other all other ideas. Any sheet not is a binder will likely roam on one of my desks and will be forgotten. This is actually a feature, like survival of the fittest applied to desk environment.
