Morbus Iff organizes his LEGO bricks into tackle/bead divider boxes for the smallest pieces (which paradoxically then take up the most amount of room but are far more accessible), and zip bags for larger pieces (which are then shoved into larger drawer bins). The following is forever in-progress. Images from http://www.peeron.com/. This is not meant to list every piece I have (Brickset + Peeron FTW), but rather to indicate where like items go.
