managing Pianotech content information

[Alan McCoy]

Or you can create a bunch of folders matching your sensibilities. Like in
the attached doc. Relying on the archives is IMO not all that effective,
given that the  subject lines are often an unreliable indicator of the
actual content of the message. You can search the archives in several ways
(thread, author, date), but you will often miss what you are looking for.
Then again you can often stumble across something else interesting. Or not.

How do you guys group the info that comes through the list so it's 
relevant to your individual needs?  How do you make it like your own 
personal "Tips & Tricks" that you can review at any time? 

I've been saving individual emails in threads, but they get buried 
quickly if I save a number of posts. And I don't take time to sift 
through them when I have 200+ emails that aren't arranged in any 
particular order.

Possibilities:
1. Save them in a document and bookmark them by having a "Table of 
Contents" thing with hyperlinks to the relevant text.
2. Hyperlink to the archives and name the link something like "Aluminum 
rail, stripped."

If I use hyperlinks to the archives (which is what I'd like to do), will 
the archives' info always retain that info at the same place? For 
example, if I direct the hyperlink to 
www.ptg.org/archives/relevant-info, will that "relevant-info" always be 
stored there, or do things get renamed after a number of years?

Thanks in advance,

JF
