At work, I tend to put a lot of stuff into a wiki that has a decent
search function.
Hmmm, my goodness! Quite elaborate alternative to looking through
dropdown menus ...
I suggest a good desktop search tool like Recoll.
The wiki approach works great. We keep general info like important phone
numbers. IP address usage, one or two liners for bash. All nicely
categorized and searchable.
Wikis are great for groups or information you want to share with others,
but seems like a bit of overkill to me for only one person.
Then, I really should document what I did setting my systems up, just in
case I need to recreate one from scratch.
This is at work. There are quite a few people where I work.
all the best,
drew
