Mac Folder Color Highlighting

I am a massive fan of file and folder highlighting in OS X. If you’re not using it, check it out. Just right click on any file or folder and you can highlight it in a certain color. This feature has come in extremely useful for managing the writing of my book. Check out the screenshot. I created little text snippet files to act as a legend, and then I color the chapters with what I need to do. As you can see, I have very little left to do, but I can take a look at this from time to time and reassure myself of what’s going on.

I also highlight any folders relevant to current projects in my “Projects” folder. Currently there aren’t too many of those!

    I didn’t know you were writing a book, can you share some details about it? (maybe I just missed it)
