Five Steps to a Kinkless Desktop | Kinkless
Nice series on keeping your Desktop/files organised. I've pinched a few ideas, eg. using Hazel for labelling stuff (I'd only used for moving files according to type in the past).

stikkit
Rather slick, this, if difficult to explain - intelligent note-taking, I suppose: "As you type, Stikkit watches for appointments, to-dos, people... magically extracting and organizing the important details."

will-self.com: Will's Room
A 360 degree view of Will Self's writing room, a glorious mess of post-it notes, annotated maps and unsteady piles of papers. (Shame it's not a Quicktime VR panorama thingy, though.)

Metafilter gets all folksonomical on our asses, but on the Flickr self-tagging model, not the del.icio.us bookmarking one, which seems wrong to me.
