Mind confusion and organization

One of the greatest problemas faced by the HyperCog, and alike, is the task of organizing and systematizing content, things, etc. Sometimes, it may be a real Herculean effort for some of us, specially due to the fact that it is plain too hard for hypercogs to look at a given thing/subject from a single point of view.

HyperCogs have a tendency to look at things from several points of view AT THE SAME TIME, which may bring with it a real problem when trying to organize things. We have a hard time choosing a starting point from which to begin an organization process. Then, we also start thinking about future needs that may affect any organization method we may end up choosing.

Take the task of organizing books, for instance. We may choose to organize our books by title. But, some day we may need to find an author, and would have to browse by the titles in order to find that specific author. If we organize the books by author, and forget who wrote that specific book, then we would have to browse through all the books again, to find that specific one. Organizing by genre would pose the same problems, even more, due to the fact that not all books fall under a single category: take books like "Island", by Aldous Huxley, for instance, which may be considered to be a fiction, a phylosophical book, etc.

Getting worse

Yep, things are getting worse here, for this HyperCog in particular!
More and more ideas are coming, my mind is getting more active by the hour...and, quite often, these ideas and thoughts become something like "obsessions", which become something like "projects", which quite often, since I'm a web addict, become blogs, or anything similar to that.

That means, basically, that, right now, I have around 15 to 20 blogs running at the same time...of course, since ideas come quite often, and they are so differente from each other, I don't have much time to update those blogs, and other projects. Really hope that will be different with this blog here.

Why are things like that?! Well, usually I come up with a new topic, or subject, that I wanna discuss, talk about, etc. And, what a better way to do that nowadays than with a blog, right?! Then, since they are so many, I can't update them so often, and still carry on with my "real life". But, since I've put quite some effort into creating them, writing for them, etc., then I have no courage to delete them. And, since ideas come so often, I can't delete them, and save their content elsewhere, because I'd most probably forget where Id saved them, or forget they exist, etc.

Anyway...I need to find a way, ASAP, to become more systematic, organized...find a method, a plan!!! Yep, that's it...gotta come up with a plan to systemathize it all (does this word exist, systemathize?!)...whatever! Let's keep moving forward...
