Org is implemented on top of Outline mode. Outlines allow a
document to be organized in a hierarchical structure, which (at
least for me) is the best representation of notes and thoughts.
An overview of this structure is achieved by folding (hiding)
large parts of the document to show only the general document
structure and the parts currently being worked on. Org greatly
simplifies the use of outlines by compressing the entire
show/hide functionality into a single command,
org-cycle, which is bound to the TAB key.
