Last week, I explained how I managed my work-related documents and other files. This week, I’m thinking about something even more important: My family’s memories, in the form of the many photos and personal videos that we’ve made over the years.

As with basic file management, this process has changed with advances in technology, especially cloud-based storage services like Microsoft OneDrive and Google Drive/Photos. But an added wrinkle is that much of this content pre-dates this digital age, and so I had to scan and organize many paper-based photos as well.
