Scott Ellis is a technologist, \u00a0an author, blogger, kalimbist, micro-blogger, \u00a0and a photographer, in no particular order. \u00a0Flawlessly forgetful, he is an avid <\/i>tile user. \u00a0For a day job, Scott works as the infrastructure architect for the \u00a0e-discovery software company, kCura.<\/i><\/p>\n

I’ve lamented for years that I can’t just type in : Find: sneakers.shoes\u00a0into my computer and have it tell me where my sneakers\u00a0are. \u00a0One time, after I had been coding for nearly 20 hours, I actually tried to grab my coffee cup with the mouse arrow. \u00a0Yeah, right?<\/p>\n

I lose my stuff in my house. \u00a0Every day, I spend a minute here, a minute there, just looking for things like my keys. Mostly, it\u2019s my shoes. Sometimes, my keys are in my shoes. \u00a0In the daily battle between my left brain and right brain, organization is typically the first victim<\/p>\n

Now, along comes tile.\u00a0<\/em>I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz, and with my inevitable forgetfulness and curiosity, I found their offering intriguing. \u00a0I decided to make a purchase, and give it a chance.<\/p>\n

tile <\/i>is a nifty little tag that I stick on just about anything to help me keep track of stuff. \u00a0It\u2019s about 1 inch square by a quarter inch thick and I have them on everything from my kalimba to my camera to my shoes. \u00a0I even have one in each car. \u00a0I have placed another order for 8 more. The truth of the matter is this: If it were feasible, I would integrate this platform into everything.<\/p>\n

Here are just a few, everyday uses for tile<\/i>, most of which I will have cause to use:<\/p>\n
