Haystack is a project at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to research and develop several applications around personal information management and the Semantic Web.
The most notable of those applications is the Haystack client, a research personal information manager (PIM) and one of the first to be based on semantic desktop technologies.

Similar to the Chandler PIM, the Haystack system unifies handling different types of unstructured information.
