DEVONThink and libots
John Robb linked to DEVONthink which is a free form information manager for MacOS X. It takes a less structured approach than Chandler is trying to take. It looks like you just dump all your information in there and turn it's recognizers loose and it sorts it all out for you.
One thing that I noticed while reading the pages is that Mac OS X has a text summarization service built in. I've been looking for something like that for a long time. I know that the ATG (Advanced Technology Group at Apple) had one of these lying around. This is a great thing to have as a system service. If one of you MacOS X hackers can confirm this, that would be great.
In the process of reminiscing about this, I decided to do some Googling. It turns out that the Open Text Summarization library being used in AbiWord is now up on SourceForge.

The result of doing select all on your post and picking "Summarize" from the services menu. Yup, it sure does :)

Ted Leung's post about the text summarisation in MacOS X got me back working on the text summarisation in Classifier4J. I committed an early cut of the code tonight - it works pretty well, but needs a lot of optimisation.
