Notes from the desk

These notes are written by Z. They are about habits that keep a folder useful, not growth playbooks. If you want buttons and field names, use the docs.

If you only read one, read how I set up a client folder or the week half my saved links were junk. The rest is variations on the same stubborn idea: a URL without a sentence is not organized. It is just stored.
