Personal information management or PIM is attracting increasing attention as an area

right place, in the right form, and of sufficient completeness and quality to perform
the current activity. Tools and technologies help so that we spend less time with
burdensome and error prone actions of information management (such as filing). We then
have more time to make creative, intelligent use of the information at hand in order to
get things done
