BrainStorm description
Think, plan and organise faster. Capture, organise, hyperlink and HTML publish.
BrainStorm helps you think, plan and organise quickly, thoroughly and effortlessly. You can create order out of information chaos.
BrainStorm enables high-speed thinking, planning and organising. You can capture, store, modify and rearrange ideas and other textual information in a free-form tree-like and hyperlinked model.
You can publish and email these '3D' models as a single HTML/JavaScript file. Cures information indigestion.
Very easy to learn and use. BrainStorm lets you capture textual information from any source. Just select what you like the look of and it appears in BrainStorm. Or, of course, you can just type your thoughts straight in.
Great for research, fact-gathering, wit-gathering, free-form database building and complex to-do list making. BrainStorm's powerful yet simple commands help you quickly organise your information into a hierarchy
, most important at the top least important at the bottom.
BrainStorm automatically creates hypertext links between matching entries, wherever they are. (You can easily disconnect unwanted links.) You can move from greater to lesser detail and slip 'sideways' between related information in different contexts.
You can do this with just six keys or, of course, the mouse.
The pathways are similar to those in your brain. The Find command takes you directly to what you are looking for. Most importantly, you do all of the above completely instinctively.
Here are some key features of "BrainStorm":
· It is a thinking and planning aid

· It gives you tools to structure information when it suits you
· It automatically creates hypertext links between identical pieces of information
· It allows you to launch links to valid email, web, program, file and record addresses
· It is not like any other thought-organising program, so don't look for parallels
· It is scalable from the smallest to the largest project (eg a to-do list, a speech, a wedding or a tv series or your life.)
· It is very easy to learn and use
· It becomes almost transparent in use
· It accelerates your information gathering, organising and thinking processes
