Diskspace is cheaper than worktime. Things get in but not out.

11 Defining PIM the organization and maintenance of personal information collections in which information items, such as paper documents, electronic documents, messages, web references, handwritten notes, etc., are stored for later use and repeated re-use [Jones, 2007]

12 The situation organize today meeting in Belfast

14 PIM is not a new problem! Bush s Memex (1945)

15 PIM is not a new problem! Nelson s Hypertext Editing System (1967)

16 PIM is not a new problem! Engelbart s NLS (1968)

17 PIM is not a new problem! Apple s MessagePad (1997)

18 PIM Activities

19 PIM Key Activities Filing Finding Organizing

20 Filing keeping information hotel receipt for accounting pilers few folders, task oriented desktop/belfast/ Goal Different Strategies reminding and time management put receipt in todo folder filers many folders, structure oriented projects/cid/trips/belfast multi-purpose many more strategies, mixed in use

21 Finding seeking something new Hotel in Belfast teleportingto the result via search engine receipt belfast Goal Different Strategies re-finding something old Receipt of hotel stay for reimbursement navigating and orienteering Documents\project\Belfast\ receipt.pdf main concern in PIM preferred approach

22 (Re-)Organizing Ad hoc desktop! Default folder of application! inbox! designing the organisation Planned cleaning and reorganising reusable travel template for tickets, receipts, photos Regularly, sometimes, when the structure does not work, a new job, got a new computer, deleting files, cleaning up examine others and learn chances for tools analyzing and optimizing use of time, effectiveness in job, todo-management, project management, e-learning, staying creative, staying up-to-date in a field competitive advantage

23 How do people organize? Reference Information Type Categories Malone (1983) Paper documents neat, messy Mackay (1988) prioritizers, archivers, requesters and responders Whittaker & Sidner (1996) no-filers, frequent-filers, springcleaners Bälter (1997) folderless cleaners, folderless springcleaners, cleaners, spring-cleaners Abrams, Baecker & Chignell (1998) Web bookmarks Gwizdka (2004) cleaners, keepers Boardman & Sasse (2004) Documents, , Web bookmarks no-filer, creation-time filer, end-ofsession filer, sporadic filer pro-organizing, organizing-neutral Henderson, Personal Document Management Strategies (CHINZ2009)

24 Pilers, Filers, Structurers Pilers Filers Structurers Self-reported level of organization Not very organized Somewhat organized Somewhat / very organized Use of search Last resort Second choice Second choice (sometimes first) Preferred view List/Details List/Details Details/List Number of top level folders Medium High Low Number of top level files High High Low Average depth Low Medium High Henderson, Personal Document Management Strategies (CHINZ2009)

25 Getting interviewed Being interviewed on PIM influences PIM and can cause subjects to pick up a strategy learned from the interviewer The study had an immediate "self-auditing" influence on the behavior of most participants taking part in the study caused them to [ ] plan future strategy changes. [ ] Overall the tool hasn t done that much, its more the conversations between me and you [Boardman+2004pimstudy]

26 PIM Tool Support

27 Standard PIM Tools PIM Suites Storage, but no management Information silos, but no PIM process support Data, but no context Does not connect Things go in but don t come out Outlook, Lotus Notes, Mozilla Thunderbird/Sunbird, Mail+iCal+AddressBook, Google Web Apps,...

28 Standard PIM Tools Mind-mapping connect thoughts with information establish context weak in searching and navigating weak integration no information semantics MindManager, Freemind, TheBrain,...

29 Standard PIM Tools Note-taking quick way to capture information helps pilers more than filers sometimes: support through auto-suggestion weak support for structured information (e.g., appointments) OneNote, Evernote, DevonThink, NoteScribe,...

30 Standard PIM Tools (Desktop) Search Engines find text, but no meaning no context, no hierarchy, no organization, no prioritization Windows Search, Google Desktop Search, Spotlight,...

31 Semantic PIM

32 The Semantic Desktop: Associative Assistance Associations a mental model Person Project Location Meeting Semantics words connected with meaning Claudia Dirk CID Kickoff Belfast and documents PIMO - a Framework for Representing Personal Information Models Contacts Claudia Stern Dirk Hagemann Klaus Nord Files Documents Papers Projects CID Research s Inbox Todo SAP CID-proj Karlsruhe

33 A Working Semantic Desktop: Nepomuk-KDE

34 Cluug.com Approach to PIM Identify relevant things Bring information into context (projects, persons, tasks, topics, communication, events,...) Re-find information by browsing Try to understand what information means Assist the user proactively wherever they are Be extensible, non-obtrusive, and orthogonal to what is existing Later: share in groups

37 How can we benefit from PIM?

38 PIM Benefits For organizations: better PIM means better productivity! better understanding of information and needs better teamwork and group IM key to leveraging employee expertise For people: better PIM makes happy! feel organized reduce cognitive overload

39 Creating PIM Awareness Awareness of the challenges and opportunities of active PIM is important! Education and training pays off Interviews and discussions help people reflecting their habits A little PIM can go a long way
