A recently announced website and currently limited beta Twine looks to be an interesting new tool for collecting information and processing it. From the company's website:

in a nutshell Twine uses the Semantic Web, natural language processing, and machine learning to make your information and relationships smarter. But if that’s all Greek to you, just think of Twine as your very own intelligent personal Web assistant, working for you behind the scenes so you can be more productive.

I will be excited to see what it can do.
