There's an interestingly-strange set of pages at http://www.ms.lt/ titled "Minciu Sodas", which in Lithuanian apparently means "Orchard of Thoughts". They're largely the work of Andrius Kulikauskas, an articulate fellow who has pulled together quite a bit of information about thinking tools of various sorts (e.g., see http://www.ms.lt/ms/projects/toolkinds/index.html and http://www.ms.lt/ms/projects/toolkinds/organize.html for excellent annotated links to important sites; see also http://www.memes.net/ for further mysterious perhaps-wiki-like activity from another source).

But it's hard to evaluate Minciu Sodas. Is it a personal playground for a few bright souls? ... an erstwhile dot-com? ... an experiment in collaboration just short of critical mass? ... a disorganized shoebox of mystical ideas? ... or something completely different? I really don't know — but it seems potentially important, or at least useful, or at least entertaining. (Speaking of which, what is this ZhurnalWiki?)
