I’m not working on this problem actively but about once a year I go into a frenzy of brainstorming about it.
What I wish for is a useful melding of easy stuff like Notes.app, structured stuff like a custom database, and my reams of notes taken on physical paper. Oh and scrapbooks, web clippings, etc.
At the end of every brainstorm I throw up my hands, say this is too complicated to ever be worth doing, and resolve to change the way I gather and generate information.
