It's a topic I have on my mind.

Right now I have a system I call FRAxInUS which uses a document database back end and contains a commenting system, tag system, personal webcrawler, and has some visualization tools. It started out reusing a lot of code from my YOShInOn RSS reader and one of these days I want to make YOShInOn a FRAxInUS application.

In one instance of this I have a collection of 250,000 or so images or so which I am organizing. In the other one I loaded about 400 notes from somebody's Evernote and I am tagging them. I'm planning to introduce "projects" to the system so I could go to a URL like

/projects/b12f2df5-0eda-436a-9776-04221488f744

and this goes to a "tenant" in the system which might have its own db or might be in a shared db with records marked with the project id and also activates a set of Flask blueprints and sets template settings to personalize it. It starts out with ingesting images, HTML, and plain text but the long term plan is to implement structured records, for instance, to have a semiautomated process to suck out references to people in the notes and make a database of people.

Look up my email in profile and I'd be glad to talk about it.
