Searching Your Computer
Could the answer be right under your nose?
Before caller identification and cellular phones, most kept both business
and personal phone numbers in phone books. These personal books range and
vary in size, and many still use them.
However, because it is easy to store numbers in a cellular phone, and we
often use caller ID to save a number or store them for future use, we
often forget to actually write the number down somewhere safe.
People may send emails with their numbers, and instead of writing them
down, we just save them on the computer. If you are looking for the owner
of a number, or a number for a person, are you really sure you don't
already have that information? You may think you would remember something
like that, but it is very easy to forget about getting and storing things
like phone numbers and addresses.
If you aren't sure, you have to search. One of the first places you can
look is in your email. Some emails have internal searches and others do
not. If you don't have a search, you may have to go through your old
emails one by one to see if you can find the information. Don't forget
about other email accounts you may use for business or ones that you may
have not signed into in a while.
If your email brings up nothing, you can look through your computer files.
You may have many of them, so this might take a while. Though some people
are organized when saving and naming files, many are not.
You may not be able to tell what is in each file without opening each one
up. Depending on how many files you have, this could take a while as well.
Don't forget other forms of saving information. If you have saved
information to a floppy disk, memory stick, or to a data CD, make sure you
look through those as well.
If you have too many files to search through effectively, or you just
don't have the time, there is one great tool out there that you can use to
search your entire computer. Some computers have a search, but they rarely
work well. You may want to download and use the Google Desktop search.
This is something that is rather new, but can be used to find files on
your computer that you have lost or misnamed. The search works in much the
same way as the Google online search, so choose your search terms
carefully. It may take a while for the search to be completed, but if the
information is hidden away on your computer, this is one tool that just
might find it.
