Organizing my files (EASILY!!)

[Jerry Feldman]

Good subject. While I don't have an answer directly, I recall that the
wearable computer guys, specifically Thad Starner had thought about that
and had some solutions. Additionally, Nat Friedman talked about that a bi=
t.

Basically, my personal solution is to use a hierarchy. I guess this
comes from my earlier days in IBM mainframes where everything was a
hierarchy. It is just the way IBM saw everything in the universe. IBM's
early database was a hierarchical storage system. The Linux/Unix file
system allows you to manage everything  hierarchically. Then you can use
beagle to help you manage the information. Just about every Linux distro
contains Beagle.
