  4. Infrastructure for PIM • Unifying elements • Copy and paste, text • URI, file name • RDF, semantic desktop • Focus: Window and document focus • Unifying attention • What people are attending to • Pulling in other information

  5. Analyzing and Evaluating PIM • Survey of model PIM studies • Build common approaches • Reference tasks • Domains: Web, email, file systems, calendar, photos, music… • Metrics • Search v. browse, time, optimal path, cognitive effort • Affective, flow, engagement, control, lostness • Measure PIM practice • Percentof files used recently, folder branching factor • Organizational strategies (e.g., filer v. piler) • Awareness (e.g., where stored?), confidence

  6. Managing PIM Identities • How people manage their identities • Tools, physical/data location, device, screen name, language, avatars, fantasy • Sometimes intentional, sometimes unintentional • Benefits • Cognitive effort, privacy, ownership, control • Problems • Leakage, fragmentation, confusion, embarrassment • Reasons for problems • Tools, society, other people, individual • Tackle it with better tools, policy, and flexibility

  7. Best Practices • Teach people to manage their PSI better • Information management strategies identified • Need to study, test, and identify better • Many dimensions affect best practices • Age, style, tools, trust, special needs, discipline • But we may not as different as we may think • How to share best practices? • Value in knowing how you differ

  8. PIM Definitions • Proflection: Information projection + reflection • Toothbrush effect: The act of doing something personal for the benefit of other people that in fact benefits the individual doing the action. • Information closet: A digital space (commonly a folder) where miscellaneous information that hasn't been put away properly is stored.
