I keep some top-level headings in my central `my.org' file after I've 
hived off the contents to other org files, just to have a convenient 
link to the file and save myself having to remember how I named it.

So I'd do something like:

* Admin
* [[file:./drupal.org][Drupal]]
* MacOS
* Linux
* Time Reports

Don't forget to add the new files to your agenda files, the agenda 
view being the chief way of pulling together all your tasks.
