Why BrainStorm is different

1. Why BrainStorm is different...

Rather than write a long-winded narrative, these are the essential points to bear in mind before taking a look at BrainStorm:

It is a thinking and planning aid
It helps you capture and arrange information and ideas
The Web-publish button means you can share your thoughts with others
It doesn't force you into a structure or discipline
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
It is far more powerful than it appears at first glance
Although it will lose some of its richness, a BrainStorm model can be printed or exported as an outline
