01:43

we were never a huge hit at parties But for

01:45

reals though organizing your digital life It's actually pretty simple

those username and password combos that you never remember We'll

01:52

write them all down in one password protected document That

01:55

way you only have to remember one password instead of

01:58

like seventy And if your desktop looks like this chances

you're super cool and have two thousand facebook friends it's

02:33

even cooler When you get to see the post from

02:35

02:38

out that one girl who convinced you that a homing

02:41

pigeon would be a good investment get by by now

02:44

keeping your digital life organized can be just as helpful

02:47

is keeping your actual life organized and even though you

02:50
