** OFF TOPIC ** - Data organization.

I wanted to ask the group what type of tools they use to organize their information regarding the hobby. I was debating starting a File Maker Pro solution to keep track on information and data we come across in this hobby. Please reply via messaging versus the thread as I don't want to bog down the forum with replies not related to the aircraft monitoring.
