Cutting the Clutter with RedLaser
Sumocat from GottaBeMobile posted about of how he used RedLaser to organize his office by cutting the clutter of loose books. The before/after image he included with the post was so cool that we couldn’t help from posting it here as well.
I grabbed a book, scanned its barcode, put it in the box, then confirmed the search results matched. … Once I filled a box, I numbered it, emailed the list to my work email, and cleared the list for the next box.
Check out the imagery. The only thing that could be better than the super RedLaser arrow with drop shadow would be a timelapse video showing the the whole process.

Messy -> RedLaser + Boxes -> Organized
What I really like about this is that this is exactly the organization system I’d like to use for all sorts of physical items, like massive (print) photo collections, and souvenirs that you don’t want to throw away but also really don’t want to waste shelf space for. The challenge is speeding up the electronic cataloging process so that it’s easy to do this. Thanks for showing us how RedLaser can help with that!
