Doing some spring cleaning, and came across back issues of some trade publications. Trying to figure out what to hold on to and what to discard.
Do it by date?
Do it by topic?
Any ideas?

How Long Do You Hold On To Back Issues?

60 days.
That being said, when I run across a publication from 2 yrs ago and it is obvious I haven't looked at it since I toss it.
Trade publications are good for introducing me to new things and ideas but frankly, most of my research is done through Google.
Last year I finally decided to toss a couple of stacks of publications that were as much as 10 years old. I had remorse, for a week or so, then got over it.
I can be a pack rat but it is time to break that habit . . . at least for me.

"Hoarders." Sadly, my wife and I love the show (and we are not "hoarders").
