I have folders for ideas by year:
Ideas 2012
Ideas 2011
etc.
Inside, at the root level there are the ideas rendered (as they might use multiple tracks).
Also there is a folder for a single Reaper project where all the tracks and audio files are for that year.
* So whenever I manage to come up with something spectacular that isn't a song yet; in whatever Reaper project I have opened, I render the mix to the folder of current year.
* Then I open the project for current year in another tab and cut the items to that project.
* Then I glue the items so that the files are moved to the ideas folder - maybe there's another more intuitive way to automatically move them - I don't know.
Then it's easy to navigate to the rendered ideas folder with either foobar or Reaper's media explorer and have an entertaining hour or two.
There you are...
