The Universal Filing System?

It struck me that the amount of content that we publish about our lives today on the web is simply staggering.

We write down our bigger ideas and thoughts in blogs, twitter the random everyday things, link to the things we like, take photos of places and things we see, converse with friends on social networks and record all the conversations that we have about these in Instant Messenger logs.

It seems to me in our own unplanned, chaotic and sometimes unreliable fashion, we have brought to life the Akashic records of Hindu philosophy – a record of all human knowledge and experiences.
