MyDocs is a folder provided by default in the user's home directory (/home/user). It is similar to Windows' "My Documents" and is the primary location for files to be loaded and saved through the Hildon file selector.

It contains the following hidden directories:

Hidden directories in MyDocs
.documents The "Documents" folder. Also contains a hidden directory: .games.
.images The "Images" folder, containing the sample images (Chill.jpg, City.jpg, Scooter.jpg)
.sounds The "Sounds" folder, containing the sample MP3: Here_is_the_story.mp3.
.videos The "Videos" folder, containing the sample video file: [IceAge2 trailer].avi.


According to one Nokian the reason these are all hidden directories is to enable internationalization.
