Information overload: taming the beast
Editing for resonance with identifier-haiku

Identifier-haiku is a system of shorthand for the mind, suitable for use in an analogue or web-based context.
It is a linguistic efficiency pattern designed to bridge the language gap between humans and search engine robots and to increase fluency between the left and right hemispheres of the brain.
Thinking in haiku discourages mental clutter and the pack-rat mentality that can drastically reduce one's ability to effectively and creatively act upon their stores of knowledge. By organizing thoughts in terms of highly memorable thought-keys, the individual can more easily access stored information, just as a search engine can use keywords to process enormous amounts of raw data.
Why try it? As an experiment, to see if the brain can be trained to perform more like a search engine, and vice versa.
