Time to Re-Think the Operating System
I’m sick and tired of the decades old folder system. Whether is Mac, PC, Linux, Android, or iOS. I want an operating system that acts like gmail, one that is omnipresent.
Ideal:
- Entirely replace the save window with tags instead of location.
- File retrieval system based on advanced search. I use Alfred and Mac OS X’s Spotlight but they are both anemic and fall short- hindered by the antiquated file/folder system.
- One Finder/Files window auto organizes based on file type. PSD, AI, et cetera and sorted by last opened/modified/created
- Auto-save to cloud with invisible versioning; not just back ups.
Maybe chrome os will be my savior.
