Personal Information Management: 2012 Update

My personal information management activities in the past year can be characterized by the following headlines:

• Web-based mindmaps become my primary PIM / PKM tool
• Cloud-based information travel runs into some turbulence
• A password manager gives me some peace, sort of
• Note-taking continues to be something of a conundrum
• The revenge of the file system
• Au revoir, Delicious
• Knowledge-base nirvana eludes me still.

In the days that follow, I will write the brief stories behind these headlines.
