Have you heard of a Mind Map? It is an excellent tool that can help in gathering and sorting information. Tony Buzan developed the Mind Map in the late 60s to help students in note taking, memorizing and to review information.
The central theme generates a whole lot of connecting ideas and thoughts that are visually represented in a Mind Map. The cental idea could be a task, idea or even a word.
I have found Mind Maps extremely useful in giving my emails a structure, to jot down key points in discussions, concalls, meetings and brain storming sessions.
It forms an important part of my workshop on email writing skills where the participants draw Mind Maps to generate, structure and prioritize the information in their emails.
This link to Tony Buzan's official website will help you learn more on Mind Maps.
