Background:
After finally getting around to reading Malcom Gladwell's "The Tipping Point," I've been exposed to this idea of Connectors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpersonal_ties#Tie_destinctions)">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectors[/url]) and really recording and organizing the casual contacts I make with interesting people, which he terms the "weak tie" ([url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpersonal_ties#Tie_destinctions). As part of my GTD refinement, I thought I should dump all these weak ties out of my head and into my system, which at this point is the sync between Mac Addressbook and Palm Contacts.
Question:
What have others done to organize these weak ties in this type of system. My first thought was to create a "Weak Ties" catagory with a note about the context of our meeting, who connected us, why I found the person interesting, and so on, but I'm wondering whether others have gone through this same exercise and come up with other methods. There doesn't seem to be a way to include links from contact to contact in the tools I'm using, though Spotlight does a good job of seeing that meta information if it's in a note...
