My Personal Table of Contents

One of my big projects I'm working on is building my commonplace notecard system.
While researching what a commonplace was I came across an article about defining your personal table of contents  {edit- link fixed   copy of the old article / his new revised article}.

So I sat down with a notebook and pen and listed all the things that I blog about, that I pin on Pinterest, and that I'm interested in.
Many things were repeats as I blog about the same topics that I pin.
I whittled the list down to some main categories, but I know I will add more as I build my commonplace.
Then I printed templates for index card dividers; I cut them out from colored paper and white cardstock that I color coded with markers.

Here is my current list of dividers I use for my commonplace {each group has it's own color}:

Crit        -for cards I'm thinking of changing
Junk        -for cards I'm thinking of removing
Tough        -for cards I can't choose a category for
Program        -plans for specific cards
Unnassimilated    -holding zone for new cards that need to be placed

Passwords
