When put into work, the ideas are further distilled into projects which are writings meant to be published and scrutinized. This is more flexible than elementary systems of (1) taking everything into permanence, (2) the lack of a system thereof where ideas are unprocessed, and (3) notes inefficiently distributed into projects that are archived and disjointed from the knowledge frame at a whole. It is more efficient than that of an infinite canvas of mind-maps because it can be indexed and more easily converted into writing; mind-maps in this format is still a powerful format of fleeting notes that should be deleted when processed.</p>
