How do you organize your LPs?


So I've accumulated upwards of 3,000 records and storage is getting out of hand. I currently have a built-in that holds about 150 of my most listened to. I have 12 Sleeve City boxes that hold 60 each. The rest (a majority) are in other boxes, cabinets, book shelves, etc.
I am planning some cabinetry that will hold ALL my records with room for additional. My question is how do you arrange them? Alphabetical? Genre or some hybrid. I can't continue to look through 500 records to find the one I am looking for.

I still haven't decided how but I did find this http://www.discogs.com/
It seems like a good system for building a database the only problem is it's going to take forever.

I think I am going to divide by genre for starters but I can't decide on chronological or alphabetical from there.

Whatever works for you is good, but a sign of a rational filing system is whether a third party can find a record and/or put away a record without opening the field manual.
Makes perfect sense and funny.
I have used three to four groupings. Rock, Jazz, Classical, Country/folk. I then sort alphabetical and then chronological.
