[[!template text="the meaning to your data" start="00:00:10.240" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="in a concise, efficient way." start="00:00:11.679" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="How does it work?" start="00:00:13.599" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Your files are stored on your hard disk" start="00:00:14.880" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="in what technically is called" start="00:00:16.880" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="a hierarchical file system." start="00:00:18.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="What this means is that" start="00:00:20.640" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="the root of the directory tree can be" start="00:00:22.240" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="not only files, or what we call leaves," start="00:00:24.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="but also other folders/branches" start="00:00:27.760" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="that themselves contain other files, leaves," start="00:00:30.720" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and/or branches." start="00:00:33.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="This structure is supposed to" start="00:00:36.000" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="make it easy to locate your data," start="00:00:37.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="but as anyone knows who has worked with this" start="00:00:40.079" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="single-dimensional file system" start="00:00:42.079" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="for any length of time," start="00:00:43.600" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="it can get quite frustrating" start="00:00:45.280" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="when your file would fit equally well" start="00:00:46.800" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="on more than one branch of the tree." start="00:00:48.960" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="What are you to do?" start="00:00:52.079" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Create multiple copies everywhere" start="00:00:53.920" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="it might appropriately fit." start="00:00:55.920" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="What if the file was something" start="00:00:57.840" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="people would occasionally modify," start="00:00:59.039" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="like a spreadsheet or a computer source file?" start="00:01:01.120" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="You would have to hunt it down in every place" start="00:01:04.879" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and apply those changes everywhere by hand." start="00:01:07.760" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Also, let's say not only did you want" start="00:01:11.840" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="to put the file in multiple places," start="00:01:14.720" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="but it was also more appropriate" start="00:01:17.040" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="to give it different names?" start="00:01:18.799" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Plus, let's say in different areas" start="00:01:21.280" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="of the tree, there were files" start="00:01:23.280" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="with the same name" start="00:01:25.119" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="that had totally different content?" start="00:01:26.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Then updating all the different instances" start="00:01:29.280" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="of the file you need" start="00:01:31.280" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="would become more and more of a nightmare." start="00:01:32.640" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="In addition, wouldn't it be great" start="00:01:35.200" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="if we could all speed up" start="00:01:37.920" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="the actual searching for a particular file" start="00:01:39.520" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="by selecting multiple branches in the tree" start="00:01:42.479" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and simply asking the computer" start="00:01:45.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="to tell us which branches under those" start="00:01:47.200" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="contain the same file and which do not?" start="00:01:49.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="This would be especially great" start="00:01:52.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="if it were instantaneous." start="00:01:54.000" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Well, believe it or not, this is what NA" start="00:01:56.719" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="In fact, this is how NA got its name." start="00:02:00.079" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Your data is located by a process" start="00:02:03.040" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="very similar to the triangulation" start="00:02:05.040" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="used to locate radio signals," start="00:02:06.960" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="to just two or three angles," start="00:02:10.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="but instead, many dozens can be used," start="00:02:12.000" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="this makes NA appear to be" start="00:02:14.720" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="To start out, here we see the NA main screen." start="00:02:28.720" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="There are two vital aspects of mastering NA." start="00:02:32.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="as one might do with Windows Explorer" start="00:02:48.080" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="or any number of other file tools," start="00:02:50.400" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="but what we also do" start="00:02:52.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="that generally they do not" start="00:02:54.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="is place a leaf on a branch," start="00:02:56.080" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="then cruise around adding links to that leaf" start="00:02:58.000" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="on a multitude of other branches," start="00:03:00.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="which could include creating, renaming," start="00:03:02.720" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="or restructuring more branches on the fly" start="00:03:05.120" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="as needed. Plus, when we find ourselves" start="00:03:07.360" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="hunting for that file," start="00:03:10.480" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="of organizing your data," start="00:03:28.319" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and NA doesn't really put" start="00:03:29.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="any limitations on this," start="00:03:31.120" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="to move around the tree" start="00:03:46.959" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="or commence a new angle." start="00:03:48.239" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="one might do in a typical file tool" start="00:04:54.080" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="like Microsoft Explorer." start="00:04:56.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Since we want to do what they cannot do," start="00:04:58.320" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="let's right-click the leaf" start="00:05:00.479" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and select New Angle." start="00:05:01.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="the root branch navigation menu appears again," start="00:05:11.520" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="and items below them are called others." start="00:05:24.560" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="What this is saying is that" start="00:05:27.520" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="the previously selected angle," start="00:05:29.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="which can be a single leaf" start="00:05:32.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="as in this instance," start="00:05:34.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="of course it shares content with itself," start="00:05:53.600" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="and so it appears in members." start="00:05:56.800" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Now let's click the middle button" start="00:05:59.199" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="NA knows you added content to the person," start="00:07:25.759" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="so it moves to members." start="00:07:28.319" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="Now let's add some more links" start="00:07:32.160" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

[[!template text="the file name extension." start="00:08:08.960" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="It will still know how to display the item" start="00:08:11.039" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="as it actually analyzes the file" start="00:08:13.680" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="to determine its type." start="00:08:15.440" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
[[!template text="This greatly cleans up your metadata" start="00:08:17.120" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
