Christmas in January with Context Organizer
“with Context Organizer you are able to quickly get the context of attached documents as well as web sites right within MindManager 8, that are visually displayed as topics and subtopics.”
In fact, I think the output from Context Organizer is very similar to what speed-reading programs are trying to get you to pick up on.
One aspect of Context Organizer is to make the document work for the user so to speak and provide instant information capsule so the user at a glance can decide if the document is of interest and value.
Context Organizer is ideal for executives, managers, administrators, researchers, web surfers, students, writers, journalists, policy makers – people needing to rapidly absorb large amount of information quickly and without being lost in unnecessary details

A recently released Workplace Productivity Survey, reported by MSNBC, had the following findings: 62 percent of professionals report that they spend a lot of time sifting through irrelevant information to find what they need;
68 percent wish they could spend less time organizing information and more time using the information that comes their way.
Indeed, the key in dealing with volumes of data is to be able to select smartly what in fact is relevant and useful versus fluff.
One of the technologies that helps with weeding out irrelevant information is automatic text summarization. Summarization is kind of speed-up reading condensing web pages, emails and documents into keywords and summaries presented in context.
By pointing to the most important content, it allows the readers to make quick determinations if they want to read the full text.
