    Bought this product as I am tired of being unable to access (or find) my documents whilst I am travelling. This guide is superb, detailing ideas and methods for keeping your documents in an organised fashion and having them easily accessible whilst on the move.

    It has helped me to become more efficient and saved me copious amounts of time in not only being able to work on and save documents wherever I am, but also eliminated the time I used to waste searching for these documents.

    It is useful not just for business but also for personal filing and is fantastic value at only 81p.

    I would recommend this guide to anyone who needs to access there information from multiple locations or those who want to improve there efficiency and waste less time faffing around searching for the same information over and over.

    Ok, it's quite a useful article and it didn't cost a bomb. But if you're going to sell an eBook on Amazon, at least get someone to proofread and check the formatting! There are typos in here - such as "your" instead of "you're" - and he twice uses the phrase "piece of mind", which disturbs my peace of mind. There's also a place where a diagram obscures the text.
    Not good enough: must do better!

    5.0 out of 5 stars It spurred me on to get my filing accessible, controlled and secure.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 December 2012

    This straightforward guide illustrated clearly how I could start to think about managing all my important documents, something I had never really got quite round to. As a result of following the principles in the guide and making some informed choices of my own I now have a document system which is accessible, controlled and secure with two-stage authentication. For me Google Drive seemed the best choice as I was already a use of Google Docs.

    The guide is well written and following the clear steps and advice given I am sure most PC users will be able to achieve the same result.

    This is a very basic how-to and tells you nothing that can't be picked up free with a bit of web searching. Putting the date on a file name as yyyy-mm-dd is not "ultimate" filing system

    5.0 out of 5 stars Tells how to Save space, make files more accessible and easier to find.
    Reviewed in the United States on 2 May 2016
    Verified Purchase
    An excellent primer on how to use today's technology to put your files to the cloud services available, and thereby reduce space needed for paper files. Paper files take up space, they are heavy, they are hard to search through, if you have a lot of them. This author tells you how to reduce those paper files by putting them to pdf, then how to create an electronic online filing system that allows you to find your files. Also discussed is how to utilize cloud services for your online filing system, and how and when to perform maintenance. Any document put in pdf format, can then be found much easier with much less searching, and is accessible in many more places (Ipad, IPhone, smart phone, etc.). He includes links to cloud services (free and paid), discusses security of cloud services, and more. If you have been wondering how to save space in your home, how to make your documents more easy to find, and accessible in more places -- this is the book that can help you do that.

    Individuals living in small apartments, small spaces, RV's, etc., will particularly appreciate the advice and procedures in this book. Saving space is necessary for all of them.

    Before reading this short essay, I was expecting to find something to interest me. I found an entire system that would solve my problem with moving to the cloud and making the data on the main computer much easier to control. The only thing that was going to hold me back, my wife's reluctance to use the cloud without a complete copy accessible from the main computer, was taken care of in this little essay. I do hope that the author, James Cannam, will put out some more little gems like this.

    This is a deftly drafted succinct read that provides you with a comprehensible approach to and plan for getting into the cloud. Camman tells you where the work is thin and provides warnings and/or suggestions on where to go to beef things up. I would recommend the File Naming Convention white paper at eXadox for a more in depth discussion on the topic. And, for more peace of mind, I would have liked a word on migrating your files and folder structure from one cloud service to another. I've read quite a bit on this topic and not only was this worth it, I'm actually implementing my system with it.
