You’ve just downloaded PersonalBrain. You’re probably thinking, “I love the interface but what’s the best use of it? How can I get started?” There are a million and one uses and applications for PersonalBrain. We were hard pressed to narrow things down to 10, but here they are…
| 1. Visual Bookmark Manager | |
| You’re navigating the Web discovering great content. Why bury it in your favorites list and folders? You can think of PersonalBrain as a creative bookmark manager on steroids. Create a few categories of Thoughts and then drag and drop any URL into your PersonalBrain. Now you can conceptually organize all your Web sites and even add notes for each web site. |  |
| 2. File and Everything in Your Life Manager | |
| OK, now let’s take all your bookmarks and integrate them with your files and ideas in your head. Simply drag and drop any file or folder into PersonalBrain’s visual interface and new Thoughts are automatically created. This can be a great way to connect ideas for projects you’re working on to the Web sites and files that describe them. |  |
| 3. Capturing Expertise and Special Interests | |
| Now, let’s get specific. What do you love? What do you browse the Web for or talk about over lunch? You need to create a Brain for your special interests. Are you an avid diver, strategy gamer, environmentalist, or maybe animal lover? You can store all your ideas and online references in your Brain. Once it’s all mapped out, you’ll be amazed how clear and insightful it is to see all your ideas and information on your hobby. PersonalBrain becomes your ultimate reference. |  |
| 4. Competitive Intelligence and Product Development | |
| Creating charts in documents and spreadsheets won’t provide you with the same insight as a Brain on your competitors. Create categories for key markets and product dimensions and link to their Web sites. You can also add any files you have about the products to each Thought. Since TheBrain’s interface is associative you can categorize information under many different dimensions. This is ideal for market analysis, as often one product falls under many categories. For instance, TheBrain’s “PersonalBrain” might fall under downloadable software, mind mapping, and visualization software. PersonalBrain’s unique associative interface enables you to have one topic under many categories. |  |
| 5. Research and Analysis | |
| Staying up to date on all the latest trends and developments can mean the difference between developing cutting edge products and letting your competition pass you by. Use PersonalBrain to visualize key research topics and see valuable information relationships. |  |
| 6. Event Planning | |
| PersonalBrain is an ideal tool for organizing business and life events that involve many different information sets and possibilities. For example, organizing your vacation or creating a travel section within your Brain is very popular. You can create Thoughts for key destinations and drag and drop all relevant Web pages from the best hotels to main attractions. It’s also really useful to create a Thought for airlines and use the notes section (below your Thoughts) to type in all their phone numbers so they are always at your fingertips. If you are buying a house or just relocating, your Brain can become an essential partner. You can link everything from your escrow, house inspector, moving companies, even information on new hardwood floors and contractors. Getting married? Looking for a new job? Get out your Brain and get it together. |  |
| 7. Brainstorming and MindMapping | |
| Everyone knows how to brainstorm and many people are familiar with the concept of mind mapping where you branch out your ideas in a visual diagram. PersonalBrain takes brainstorming and mind mapping to the next level. Each concept you think of can be quickly captured with PersonalBrain and easily built upon. You can create a new Brain for each topic you need to think about and branch everything out continuously. Links between different ideas are easily handled and you can keep on growing it until you run out of ideas – you’ll never run out of space in your Brain! Think of PersonalBrain as a dynamic mind map that enables an infinite number of ideas and interconnections. |  |
| 8. Innovation and Strategic Planning | |
| Creating a new strategy or product line can be both complex and rewarding. Building your business plan using PersonalBrain gives you a head start by letting you easily analyze all aspects of your new venture. For example, you can do SWOT analysis by creating Thoughts for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Or, you can break down each of the key aspects of your products and even connect them up to the people and resources that you’ll be relying on. PersonalBrain lets you quickly map out all key aspects and easily understand it all, letting you focus on new innovations and strategy. |  |
| 9. Presenting and Capturing Your Vision | |
| PersonalBrain’s flexible linkages and connections can capture your vision and imagination. Use your Brain to reflect on your own ideas and share your vision with others! PersonalBrain is an evocative presentation tool that gets your audiences’ attention for public speaking, complex ideas and business presentations. You might even get that next promotion by unveiling your Brain! Visually, navigate through your ideas and topic themes using PersonalBrain. You can even rearrange your Thoughts and add new ideas in real-time as your audience asks questions. |  |
| 10. Visualizing and Tracking People Networks | |
| Use the Brain to organize all your contacts and the organizations you interact with. PersonalBrain’s flexible display lets you organize your contacts by any number of dimensions…location, deal size, business type, project involvement…Whatever is important to you. This context gives your contact information new meaning. As you browse through your Brain you will be able to see who’s connected to whom for insight into such key tasks and missions as: making new investments, solving crimes, understanding industry landscapes, new business development and more effective sales prospecting. Companies can also visualize staff members, practice areas and key reporting structures with TheBrain’s powerful visual interface. |  |
