Folders

A few weeks ago I read this article in The Economist. Just before this, I read about Microsoft's efforts to make folders irrelevant for the new operating system, Vista. Google also has Google Desktop, and folders appear to be a thing of the past.

Yet I am making new folders all the time...mostly to organize my pictures and videos. Am I dooming myself to irrelevance? Folders seem like a pretty good way for me to organize my pictures and videos. But if Google doesn't think so, I am probably wrong. Oh well. Maybe I will learn more about this at Digital Life this weekend.
