Hoarding Photos

Most of us now keep digital photo albums instead of the printed versions which is fine, unless you keep every photo ever downloaded onto your computer. Sallie Felton, life coach and talk radio host, says, “Throw out all those out-of-focus, fuzzy photos or duplicates. Be brutal and just save the best.” As with any large files, move them to an external hard drive or USB flash drive, which will help your computer run better and keep you better organized.
