A dynamic and personalized system for organizing data is disclosed. The system provides users the ability to organize addressable information by creating associations between the information independent from the information and from any other previously imposed organization of the information. The associations contain trigger and target addresses, and relationship between the data. A view in the association identifies how to interpret the relationship. Tools are provided to manage the associations, and several applications of the organization system are described such as associating personal notes, serial construction of documents, compound construction of documents, and group construction of documents.
