Working for a CVS {Council for Voluntary Sector} we are inundated with documents, links, pdf’s, images and countless number of files.

Now there needs to be a seperate post that looks at tools that can file and categories the information on your computer in folders, however this is a nifty little tool that can organise the clutter on your desktop.

Fences is a addon program that runs on all Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.  It will organise the desktop and you can also hide the icons when they are not in use.
Here’s what it will look:

Fences in action

Pretty, huh!

Veronica ‘ Community Officer – Children and Young People’s Agenda’ is inundated with files and the fast pace she needs to move makes it easier for her to just have short cuts or files on the desktop, this however has her entire screen full to the brim.

Fences has her desktop looking like the above and has encouraged her to create folders to categories the files. As an indirect bonus there were files lurking on her desktop that neither of us had a clue what they were for and can now be fed to her recycle bin.
