Is there a way to create a grid that displays a list of all grids?
 
I realize, of course, that the Manage Grids dialogue does this but I want to be able to add my own personal organization to the list.
 
I keep my own list of grids but it's a bit of a pain keeping it updated and correct. 
 
Seems like there's a simple way to do this but it's escaping me.  Couldn't find anything in the manual.

 Wayne, the only relatively simple way I know is to:
1 put AllGrids on your home page
2 expand AllGrids  to get the links to all your grids, sorted by name
3 select the Allgrids links and copy
4 then paste into your Grid of Grids grid, which creates an item for each grid.
 
In my case, 473 grids took a little while to perform the pasting, but the status bar clearly shows  where the processing was at, "x/473."
 
Fyi, related threads

Hi Wayne,
 
Checkout Grids grid
 
With this method, I created 50 items, pointing to as many grids in a few seconds. I then created a few organizing items and moved the items under them, sometimes under two groups
 
I created a new doc pane in the section Tips and Tricks explaning this in details: Creating a grid of grids

Your Grid of Grids is what I'm doing right now.  It's just a little tedious to manually update it  when you have a lot grids.
 
I'll take a look at the other options.
