Interacting with data by Taxonomic context.
In my OS, When I want to access data relating to my car, I want to go into "Car" Context, and see every datapoint, regardless of datatype that fits into the "Car" context. Like a dashboard based on taxonomic context.
Files, regardless of format:
Scanned title
Insurance information
Photos of car/with car in it.
Copies of receipts for maintenance log
Communications:
Emails, Texts, IMs from insurance company, mechanic, buyers, sellers.
Contact information for Insurance company, mechanic (vCards)
Notifications - pending calendar events, expiring tags, etc.
Calendar events - appointments/reminders (iCAL)
Todos
Notes
Financial transactions for gas/repairs (OPML) - budgetary graphs subsegmented
Public/General information
News about recalls - mentions (RSS)
Discussion Groups/Q&A Forums for that model of car.
Bookmarks and other website references
Stats and Data:
Vehicle stats from OBD (odometer/mpg etc)
Additional stats from internet of things devices (like insurance company OBD sensors)
Bookmarks
The overarching Taxonomy could be a hierarchical list, anything could be tagged with multiple functions.
