I'm right now trying this system developed by Stephen Covey, the author of The Seven Habits of Highly Succesful People, he has a system called Franklin Covey Planning Pages but this is just a way to help organize one's life, which delves a little into organizing one's information, but certainly doesn't do so comprehensively. Sometimes I feel it healthy to be intimidated by the knowledge I don't have, but when it manifest as actual anxiety, thats not good.

In many ways, I believe the Internet has allowed many different types of populations to gain recognitions and come togenthver to help create positive social change. personally, I've witnessed the utilization of online forums as a way to bring disenfranchised minorities together and create a think tank of information. For example, I was injured in a freak accident a few years ago and have been searching for information regarding stem cell research and advocacy groups. My present situation does not allow me to physically join and discuss advocacy methods with other spinal cord injured patients....I was lucky to find a forum www.SCIwire.com and have since become an active member learning about politics, science and the other nuances of finding a cure for paralysis. in terms of social change... this forum brought together a group of random injured United States citizens together to protest in Washington, DC on April 12 for the Christopher Reeve paralysis act. Without the Internet, this would not have been possible in many of our thoughts and desires as a community looking to push forward both medical and social change, would not have manifested.... I think you're researching a great topic and are making a lot of poignant discoveries with your analysis of the news and Internet relations. Best to you and your work.
