i read somewhere that we should keep orgfiles in an org folder.
i've used org casually that way and otherwise.
what advantages are there to having them in a single folder?

It can be easier to specify agenda files if you have all of them in a single
directory. If you include a directory in the agenda-files variable then all
.org files in that directory will automatically be included in agenda-files.

And I believe all archive files are included in the text search (C-c a s).

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

Perhaps the biggest advantage is that you can use a revision control
system to keep your files in sync across several computers. If you have
your org files scatter all over your file system that becomes much more
difficult.
