Film and television views of the future are always clean, sleek and uncluttered. I used to think it was the technology. That at some point in the future, we’d have the technology to meet our daily needs without the need to climb over all of our daily stuff. Then at one point, quite recently, I realized that we’re already there! This book examines over a dozen areas in which you can declutter your home by moving your “stuff” to the cloud. Like Agent Coulson’s “Tahiti”, the cloud is a magical place. In the cloud, there is no dusting, no shuffling back and forth of stuff with no real home, and most importantly, no racing from room to room to find what it is that you’re looking for. Assuming Siri is in an accommodating mood, you can even take it to the final frontier “Computer, please play my favorite album….”
Moving Clutter to the Cloud Charity Grant Books
As a person who values a life without clutter, my house is amazingly cluttered. I bought this book to discover what it is I am doing wrong, and it was very helpful. I am still trying to move into the digital world, inch by inch (as one can clearly see by that statement I haven’t even gone metric yet). I found Charity Grant’s ideas and suggestions easy to follow, even for a holdout like me.I still have VHS tapes, for heaven’s sake, but no VHS player. A quote from the book: “People who collect junk shouldn’t try to sell it.” I can say from personal experience that it is a true statement. I loved the comparisin with Star Trek, one of my favorite shows, about its clean, uncluttered look; something that, up until now, I only yearned for.
The book delivers tips and life hacks on music, collectibles, movies, streaming options, books, take out menus, the connection between books and roaches (aack!) and Charity advises the reader, in her humorous and light hearted style, how to turn everything digital and synch your devices with the Cloud, almost as if she were sitting in my living room speaking to me.
A must-read for other clutter-bugs out there.

Moving Clutter to the Cloud Charity Grant Books Reviews
This book isn't about getting rid of your favorite music, movies, recipes, etc. Instead, it's about moving it to the digital world. The average household has stacks of CDs, DVDs, and books, etc. that could be utilized easier electronically. Nearly everyone has an iPod or computer to store their music, movie streaming is commonplace and many devices can act as a e-book reader. Author Charity Grant explains how you can utilize such things to streamline your clutter. What should you do with all the clutter when you move it to "The Cloud"? Author Charity Grant gives ideas for you, including why ebay may or may not work to sell off your treasures, and how pinterest has ideas even for reusing old records. This is a great book that will give you lots of ideas to help you clear out space in your house and utilize many of your favorite things better. The author uses a lot of interesting facts as well to make this book a fun read!
Many (most?) of us have trouble with clutter. Some (like the people on that Hoarders TV show) more trouble than others. There are numerous techniques for preventing or eliminating that clutter. My Mom even self-published a book 25 years ago to sell at seminars she conducted that had a chapter on getting rid of clutter.
My success at implementing my Mom’s decluttering ideas has been mixed, at best. I think I’ll have better luck with Charity Grant’s suggestions. Some of them I’ve already implemented. (Those hundreds of books I get each year are no longer paper which has stopped bookcases from taking over my entire house.) Other suggestions I can see their value and, most important, can actually picture myself doing. To me, that’s the sign of a self-help book that’s worthwhile.
**Originally written for "Books and Pals" book blog. May have received a free review copy. **
A great reference book loaded with actionable tips and links, all well organized. The author’s sense of humor and smart insights made this a fun as well as very useful read. More enjoyable than Marie Kondo, so you are more likely to implement the book’s organizing ideas.
I was interested in this non-fiction book by Charity Grant (a pseudonym) because I am one of those people who likes to keep my possessions to a minimum. The author's aim is to move all of that stuff like music, videos, photos, plus most things made of paper to the digital cloud. Charity goes over the options in a breezy, fun way. She writes about her experiences with online selling. A lot of it makes absolute sense, but I plan to hold onto my collection of first edition books. Moving Clutter to the Cloud
I have read Marie Kondo's books and consider myself a relatively neat person. But well Marie's not into digital decluttering. I finished this funny and entertaining book in one sitting. The book gave useful tips but it was the author's humor that made this book a pleasure to read. After reading the book, I rushed to check several old gmail accounts as I didn't know they can expire. Gosh!
I have done the Japanese method and cleared plenty of clutter. I thought maybe I might be ready to live on a sleek starship.
This book includes a lot of helpful information and the author has clearly done lots of research, the links and resources provided are impressive. Where I would disagree is with the need to be so absolute about our 'stuff'. I am no means a hoarder our house is pretty tidy. Yet I like books and I don't see why it has to be all or nothing. I don't like reading on though I will if it is the only option. I like having a library of books to re -read, loan or give away or purely for sentimental reasons.
I have recently discovered that I can use the library for audio books and the explanation for that process was useful, although FYI a number of them are moving towards an updated system. I did see some other information that was a little outdated, it gave the impression that the book was in need of an update. Otherwise a good resource for those ready for the next step on the minimalist journey.
How the author managed to make what could have been an informative, yet relatively boring book into something quite entertaining is amazing! Not only are there lots of great tips and ideas on how to get rid of the stacks, piles and overflowing drawers, she takes the time to tell the reader WHY they would want to take the time to pare down years of excess accumulation. Charity Grant might want to consider writing some humorous fiction. She has a real talent! ;o)
