Processing Information: Dashboard, Triage, Clusters, and Quick Item EntryThis section covers 4 out of 5 tenets undergirding Chandler's particular approach to processing and managing personal information. They include the notion of an universal 'Inbox' (Dashboard) where task requests, reminders, invitations, notes-to-self, notes from others and random thoughts are 'Triaged' and 'processed; user needs around lightweight organization, basically something more than an item, but less than a full-scale collection: an idea we've been referring to as Clusters (basically user-definable threads); and finally, explorations of a 'Command Line for Dummies' interface that combined with smart text parsing provides users with an easy way to dump information into Chandler without interrupting other workflows.Related Journal notes and historical ArchiveMimiYin For write-ups and notes organized by time.
