Vision and plans: much more

• %%strategy / milestones: specific OM plans: NOW: **GET OBJECTS N SHARING, THEN GET PAYING CUSTOMERS(dnloads,online,consulting,prsnlDemos,articles,talks,ETC?**
• The OM vision: A complete way to manage & use all knowledge
• Collaboration/SHARING: (links/copying/sharing between instances etc), with the long goal of organizing ALL our knowledge, allowing individual/local control.
• Mobile and cloud support
• Another description (current as of 2016-5)
  

  "1) Theory: We have many systems (wikis, evernote, cyc, etc), but all are
  crippled by relying on human language as a fundamental layer. To more
  powerfully manage knowledge, we can approach it more like an object model
  created on the fly by just using the system: what you know about a pen,
  say, is best expressed as numbers, relationships, and code (mass, owner,
  behavior ...); the human language words can change when the knowledge
  doesn't.
  
  2) Vision: Be effective on an individual level, then link OneModel
  instances (find others' data, subscribe to changes, copy, link, etc),
  to build large and comprehensive systems in wiki-like ways (with the
  power of the network effect), but without the crippling human-language
  limitations. Think wikipedia but all the data is effectively computable,
  and locally controllable.
  
  3) Today: The AGPL prototype is like emacs org-mode in being keyboard-
  and desktop-oriented, and feeling like nested lists galore, but uses
  postgresql, allows having the same data linked into multiple places,
  is much easier to learn & use than emacs, and has a bigger long-term
  vision. It's (for me) the best personal organizer ever: very fast to
  navigate, and very flexible. The web site is generated from its data.
  
  4) Next steps: Community-building and funding. I could really use
  feedback. The current target audience might be note-takers who touch
  type, like speed (and don't need mobile--cough), and need to be able
  to put the same information in more than one place in their notes. And
  anyone who wants to help move the big picture forward. Like, I hope to
  add anki-like features, and ways to attach code to classes of objects
  that were "modeled" on the fly as a side-effect of using the system (eg,
  so you can change the date on to-dos, in ways you specify, with simple
  code, or eventually run simulations, etc).

• Computability and automation (code/behaviors/actions attached to entities/objects), exceedingly rich human-like queries, sorting, filtering, etc etc
• Language independence (same data, but use the words for it that make sense in whatever locale or context, or maybe even not always require names for some data)
• Maturity models / best practices for all of life: A plan for balanced personal growth, mentoring, service, and joy.
• An anki-like review system so one can memorize/master material (self-testing, smartly paced memorization/learning aid).
• Using multiple terms for the same object: the choice being based on context (language, family, whatever): but it's the same data, and language agnostic
• Vision (someday): think of wikipedia, outlines, mind mapping, evernote, org-mode, & more, with secure sharing. Hosted or under your control. (AGPL)
• FAQs (includes comparisons to other products, etc)
