askSam, from askSam Systems, was a "free form" database desktop application[1] that competed with a number of other personal information manager (PIM) applications.
It was noted for organizing disparate information such as email messages, documents, text files, spreadsheets, addresses, web pages into dynamic folders, and allowing these to be easily searched, and the results exported to spreadsheets or as a report.[2]
The last version was askSam 7, released in July 2008.[3]
