CyberAll archive includes books, CDs, correspondence, transactions, papers, photos and albums, and video; currently held in the Windows file system. The goal of the CyberAll project is to understand the problems of coping with the exponential increase in the amount of information that is becoming part of both personal and professional lives and encode everything and eliminate paper that is used for storage and transmission. There are a plethora of functions that can be invented to facilitate filing, labeling, and retrieval. The author has also used descriptive file names to aid retrieval. A name might include subject, organization, keywords and a date. It is forecasted that within the next decade personal computers will be capable of storing a terabyte of information on an individual machine. The author concludes that a system such as CyberAll could quite possibly be a killer application for personal computers.
