Structure information in a way that makes sense to you and enables you to work more effectively
Organize information (personal files, web-sites, newsgroups, discussions, notes, e-mails) together in a manner that replicates how you think about the world, which means finding and retrieving information is intuitive and straightforward. Imagine the convenience of having all your information about a particular subject accessible from one place. Open these items with one-click!

Think of the time you'll save not having to use file explorers to get at one type of thing, a web browswer to get something else, Microsoft Outlook to get something else, and with each tool having to figure out where the particular thing you want is stored.

Easily follow the most important relationships between information elements using KnowledgeWorkshop tools to describe and rate the strength of relationships and sort information based on this.

It is also possible to have items present in multiple parts of the knowledgebase (that is, multiparenting). Such items can be opened and modified from multiple locations with changes being visible when viewed from the other locations. This is a very powerful information organization feature without incurring the overhead of content duplication, and copy maintenance.
