Today’s Activity: Garbage Cleaning and Sorting.

Ok, Listen, neither have I joined the Municipality nor have I got into Rag picking. But at the same time, let me also tell you that, I have outmost respect to those people “The Garbage Cleaners” who are responsible for cleaning and dumping the municipal waste. It’s not an EASY job.
But, at least they are sure that what they are dumping is garbage.

The Garbage that I am referring to is the “Digital Garbage” that has got piled up on my system. All thanks to the internet (and the good broadband speeds), that helps me download every other article or rather stuff that looks interesting and most of which gets stacked up for “Later Reads”.
The only thing is like all other guys this “Later guy” keeps telling later and later, till finally I lose all interest in Him :-). At the same time, I don’t feel like dumping Him :-( .Who knows someday, my interest in Him could be rekindled ;-).

I’m sure every other person who is reading this would agree that they are digitized but not completely sanitized from this digital mess. It also doesn’t mean that we don’t organize our data. We all do organize our important data; it’s just that, like in our Life, priorities change with time, similarly some data that was important till yesterday seems to take a backseat today. In simple words, what I mean is that, these are the data that needs to move into the Backup disk and thereby make space for our current critical data. (ok ,ok ... I know we all know that , it's just a reminder)

And, just like in real life, never trust the “Later Guy” :-).

Let’s not pile up our disk with those “Later Reads”. I am not sure, how faithfully I am going to follow this piece of advice that was suggested by my very own brain,but, I will definitely give it a try. Or may be, I would set a time period within which I should go through those not so important data or simply dump it after the elapsed time.

No storage disk made till date can compete against the capability of the “Human Memory”.
3 cheers to the Human Brain “Hip hip hurray” “Hip hip hurray” “Hip hip hurray” :-)
