Icons, Everywhere!

Seriously. I can only fit around 15 more icons on my desktop and then it'll be completely covered. This is just as bad as having the boatload of tabs. In this case, when I have too many icons, so many times I've just selected a majority of the icons and just copied them to a "sort this stuff" folder, which in turn never gets sorted. What a mess. Sure, there's some files I'll actually use, programs that have shortcuts, but it's mostly internet shortcuts that I drag and drop to the desktop. Time to highlight a few.

That's about it for now. Hardly a dent into all the links littering my desktop, though.
