Ok, just for clarification: No he was not. Zettelkasten is a german word 
for a box (=kasten) of paperslips (=zettel). It's pretty common tool. 
People before Luhmann used them, people after Luhmann used them. Even his 
System is not really special, as most of it is just a simplified system of 
how librarys are organising books, Actually, libraries are pretty guilty in 
using Zettelkästen in very organised ways even today.

Luhmann is famous because he was successful in using those in things in a 
slightly different way then other people, while being famus enough to be 
recognized for it, and stuborn enough to use them for a long time.
