1. A method for configuring a computer system to provide a set of selectable topic names on an interface for providing access to stored electronic resources by topic name, at least some of which are assigned to named storage sets in a folder structure, the method comprising: (1) determining a topic framework for providing the set of topic names for providing access to the electronic resources by topic name on the interface, the topic framework storing topic names, associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names, and associations between topic names by: (i) determining the topic names for the topic framework from the names assigned to storage sets and the attributes of individual electronic resources by: generating one or more topic names from the names assigned to storage sets; and generating one or more topic names from attributes of individual electronic resources; and (ii) forming the associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names by: associating electronic resources assigned to a storage set with one or more topic names which were generated from the name of the storage set; and associating electronic resources having an attribute or attributes with one or more topic names which were generated from the respective attribute or attributes of the electronic resources; (iii) associating one or more topic names with one or more other topic names by: generating associations between topic names from the relationships within the folder structure between the respective storage sets from which the topic names were generated; (2) storing the topic framework to provide the set of topic names for providing access to the electronic resources by topic name on the interface, wherein the topic framework stores the set of topic names, associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names, and associations between topic names; and (3) using the topic framework to configure the computer system to present the interface through which: (i) a list of topic names is presented through which one or more topic names of the topic framework are selectable; (ii) when a topic name associated by the topic framework with one or more other topic names is selected, at least a list of the one or more other topic names is presented through which the one or more other topic names are selectable; and (iii) a group of stored electronic resources associated with a selected one or more topic names is presented so that one or more of the group of electronic resources can be selected for access.
1. A method for configuring a computer system to provide a set of selectable topic names on an interface for providing access to stored electronic resources by topic name, at least some of which are assigned to named storage sets in a folder structure, the method comprising: (1) determining a topic framework for providing the set of topic names for providing access to the electronic resources by topic name on the interface, the topic framework storing topic names, associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names, and associations between topic names by: (i) determining the topic names for the topic framework from the names assigned to storage sets and the attributes of individual electronic resources by: generating one or more topic names from the names assigned to storage sets; and generating one or more topic names from attributes of individual electronic resources; and (ii) forming the associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names by: associating electronic resources assigned to a storage set with one or more topic names which were generated from the name of the storage set; and associating electronic resources having an attribute or attributes with one or more topic names which were generated from the respective attribute or attributes of the electronic resources; (iii) associating one or more topic names with one or more other topic names by: generating associations between topic names from the relationships within the folder structure between the respective storage sets from which the topic names were generated; (2) storing the topic framework to provide the set of topic names for providing access to the electronic resources by topic name on the interface, wherein the topic framework stores the set of topic names, associations between each of the stored electronic resources and one or more topic names, and associations between topic names; and (3) using the topic framework to configure the computer system to present the interface through which: (i) a list of topic names is presented through which one or more topic names of the topic framework are selectable; (ii) when a topic name associated by the topic framework with one or more other topic names is selected, at least a list of the one or more other topic names is presented through which the one or more other topic names are selectable; and (iii) a group of stored electronic resources associated with a selected one or more topic names is presented so that one or more of the group of electronic resources can be selected for access. 13. A method according to claim 1 , further comprising: providing a user with the option to modify the topic framework by one or more of: adding a topic name to the topic framework; removing a topic name from the topic framework; adding an association between an electronic resource and one or more topics names; removing an association between an electronic resource and one or more topic names; adding associations between topic names; and removing associations between topic names.
