What is Sfinx ?
Sfinx is personal knowledge/data manager, which can manage your private data
like contacts, events, notes, files, tasks, know-how, etc. Each data item is
wired by user defined abstract category - slice. Slices are category hierarchy
that you can build/define for your own needs, for ex. :
............... Slice tree example ..............

Any data item is connected to some slice, but you can freely add, edit,
delete or reconnect them as the life changed. So the items can be connected
to each other - events can be connected to contacts, contacts to tasks, tasks
to data source, know-how or notes, and so on. Additional tags, which can be
slices or other Sfinx objects can be attached to this item too - so any data
you enter to Sfinx can be cross-connected with any other data or abstract
category. Search engine will help you to navigate in this info ocean, so you
can be more precise in your everyday tasks, and give the freed time to your
dreams. See more in user manual.
