I did the bobbin bit and hated the kinks.  Now I use floss bags and store them in numerical or alphabetical order in a library card catalogue cabinet.  I posted a picture of this in Stitch Diary.  I should have posted it here.

i have used the card bobbin in plastic box system , but i have many unwound flosses that it would take me weeks just to sort them all, i like the ideas here of bags and keeping the spare threads with them as well. maybe labels on the bags to help with number identification?!

I wind mine on bobbins and store in the plastic boxes. It works for me. The boxes seal shut and are in numerical order.

update: I use Bobbins quite often, but I tend to use the skein, until it falls apart =) then I bobbinate =) My Bobbins are stored in a box, my unused skeins in plastic bags..
