System, software and apparatus for organizing, storing and retrieving information from a computer database

A method of organizing information to facilitate storage and retrieval comprising the steps of:

• placing a new item of information into a virtual file folder;
• labeling said virtual file folder with an identifier;
• classifying said virtual file folder with a first descriptor, which is one of a plurality of first descriptors, and said first descriptor being an attribute of said new item of information;
• classifying said virtual file folder with a second descriptor, which is one of a plurality of second descriptors, and said second descriptor being an attribute of said new item of information;
• classifying said virtual file folder with a third descriptor, which is one of a plurality of third descriptors, and said third descriptor being an attribute of said new item of information;
• locating said virtual file folder in a three dimensional address structure having an X-axis with said plurality of first descriptors, a Y-axis with said plurality of second descriptors and a Z-axis with said plurality of third descriptors.

A computer program stored in a memory executable by a processor for organizing, storing and retrieving information, comprising:

• means for creating a three dimensional address structure having an X-axis with a plurality of first descriptors, a Y-axis with a plurality of second descriptors and a Z-axis with a plurality of third descriptors;
• means for locating virtual file folders in said three dimensional address structure at least in part by classifying each of said virtual file folders with one of said first descriptors, one of said second descriptors and one of said third descriptors;
• means for placing an item of information into one of said virtual file folders, and said one of said first descriptors, said one of said second descriptors and said one of said third descriptors being attributes of said item of information;
• and
• means for retrieving said virtual file folders.
