Do you have a junk drawer anywhere in your house? You know what I mean — it’s the place where you put stuff when you don’t have an immediate use for it, but you’re not ready to throw it out, either.
I not only have a junk drawer in my house; I also have one on my computer. It’s called Shovebox. And it’s better than a junk drawer because it even allows for easy organization.
