> They seem to prefer hierarchies... We might not be able to get away from hierarchies, if experience with "memory palaces" [1] gives an indication of how most of us remember (would be interesting if we could identify the memory palace equivalents for those who remember using auditory, visual, and tactile forms [2]). Most memory palaces' dendritic structure bears a striking resemblance to a hierarchical system. I still find an overall hierarchical structure, combined with indexing and tagging, as the most flexible system with today's technology. I'm looking for ways to implement automated tagging using auto-summarization, voice commands, and automatic environment-contextual cue gathering, and expanding the indexing power with automated ontology extraction. Primitive example: I pick up an incoming call from a client, the system automatically transcribes the conversation, identifies the client, files the recording and transcription to a project folder, analyzes the content of the discussion, and auto-links relevant emails, chats and documents with bi-directional hyperlinks based upon concepts vocalized and conceptual relationship maps extracted based upon a crude initial morphological analysis of the conversation. The accuracy doesn't need to be astounding for this to have use to me; just a crude approximation is sufficient for me to start with.
