    My colleague thinks that Only not organised (disroganised) people will open more than >20 tabs ?

    He also thinks having too much icons on Desktop==>Disorganised


    What's you are opinion about that?

    He will rate me most disorganized man ever then.

    I usually work with 20-22 active tabs at a time. And, my desktop is equipped with bunch of icons, lets say, 70 :eek:

    More then 20 open always.. I find easiest way to work for me instead of re-opening again, dont think you can call that disorganized, depends on a person i guess.
    Multi Monitors all the way! :)

    I currently have 4 tabs open and never really exceed 10. Mostly because my computer cant cope when I have things like Dreamweaver and Itunes open at the same time as well.

    20 tabs is pretty big, not sure I could cope with that!

    I usually only have three or four tabs open at one time, but I usually have two or three different windows open at the same time.

    My room is very messy, and yet my desktop and my tabs are very organized so I don't really see a connection here

    I have 10 tabs open right now, and about 15 icons on my desktop, which has a huge amount of space for more as it's running at 2560x1600.

    It's not disorganised, it just shows that we're busy people with lots of things on the go!

    I think everybody has or had this problem
    I believe you won't achieve anything without being organized

    IMO opening like 5-8 tab will suffice.... try to finish what you're on before going to another task

    I think its not being disorganized.. I would think that it would be more organized as you can easily work when you open every site you need in different tabs.. The number of tabs opened does not matter for as long as you can perform your work better and faster.. As for the desktop icons, if all those placed in the desktop are what you usually use, it's not being disorganized.. When you place a lot of shortcuts in your desktop icon so that you will be able to find them when you need them, nothing is wrong with that.. Separating them in different folders doesn't make a difference..

    I've usually got at least 20+ tabs opened at a time, I don't think it reflects disorganization at all because you have to be pretty organized to multitask with so many tabs opened at a time ;)

    Yeah, I think it's disorganized but my desktop is FULL of folder icons, almost no space left there.. I currently have 8 tabs open, I hate having too many tabs open, confuses my little brain. :)
