I would like to organize everything I come across into large "bins" somewhere. I've tried using bookmarks in safari, dropbox, finder, but still haven't found it.

I thought someone showed me a program like that once, but I forgot the name of it.

For instance, if I'm surfing and a see a pic that my daughter would like, I could just drag in into the "Sally" bin. If a website intrigues me for a great business idea, I could just drag it, or copy and paste it, into the "Future Projects" bin. If a I come across in my Finer an old movie of Sally as a toddler, I copy it in the Sally bin. If I am working on something, but my friend tells me red pepper is perfect for scrambled eggs, I will go to the "Miscellaneous stuff" bin and scratch that somewhere quickly (without having to create a Word file or something and then put it in the bin).

Anybody got some ideas?
 
I started to use DevonThink two month ago. The best app I ever used.

Not overly simple to start with but for me it replaced my Finder.

I store all my files like documents, pdfs, webpages, emails etc etc.

Only use iBooks, iTunes for media.

After I read an email in Mail if I want to store it for later - I import it right in to DevonThink.

Not easy not cheap (like my wife...) but EXCELLENT!
