Today I was digging through some files in my file cabinet looking for my business tax certificate. I mentioned this to a friend and he said “You do realize the irony here, right?”. Yeah, I realize that I’ve written this awesome program for dealing with documents and here I am digging through paper. I do have a good reason for this. I like to keep my business and personal documents separate, so I never scanned in my business documents into DocumentWallet and didn’t scan my receipts into ReceiptWallet. Now that ReceiptWallet handles multiple libraries, separating business and personal is quite simple, so I’ve begun to put business documents into a separate ReceiptWallet document library.
Before ReceiptWallet 2.0, doing this was not very practical. While there have been some user rumblings about some of the ReceiptWallet 2.0 changes including multiple libraries, this experience shows me that the multiple library decision was definitely a correct one. It may take some time for users to get used to multiple libraries, but in the end, I think that users will find many uses for them.
