I totally agree with your perspective of the situation. It has gotten to a point where there are just WAY too many things competing for my time and my attention. That's one of the reasons I started using GTD in the first place, so I didn't feel guilty about not keeping up on EVERYTHING! Organization is definitely part of it, but intelligence as well. With all the different news feeds I have I can't count how many duplicate articles you receive, variations on the same content. How do I correlate all these different forms of content into several UNIQUE passages. I don't need another article telling me about "The Format War sucks" Also in my experience is that as the content increases, so does the crap. No matter how much we view, we're always starving for something new and or fresh. How do we find it without weeding through the crap? Definitely given me food for thought my man. Great post Gordon.

Maybe the natural language folks have got it backwards - instead of trying so hard to make it possible for us to talk to our computers, maybe we need tools to help them talk to us. Obviously keywords, tag clouds and the like are a popular area of experimentation right now and a good example of the kind of innovation I was talking about. Sounds interesting.
