But this is the core of this program - or just rename it to something other, not "The Brain" ) Yes, they are difficult to program and difficult to design. Different people prefer different ways of it, so there should be many ways. Enkidu is right - visualization is the key. Instead, appeal to the people who need more complex thought work done, nor just "list - GTD - presentation - ka-ching! (and some nice video from YouTube in notes )))". Guys! No need to run for them! You have zero chance to catch them, but you definitely lose your current core base on the way.

They try free version, get excited (because it is something new and interesting), then quickly burn out and switch to other, smaller and simpler applications. TB is too big, too clumsy, too complex for them. That goes for all other, not-model features, like lists, outlines, GTD etc. TB will not be able compete with them, not even in a 100 years, sorry. Just look on the most advanced MM programs, what features are they restlessly developing? All "good visual presentation" features. Ha! Do they really hope that mindmappers crowd will flock to TB? Of course it won't happen! Most people who are using MM use it for presentation purposes. Like, they replaced Expanded for MindMap.
For all those purposes there are better tools over there. Of course, many people use it for totally other purposes, and it is all right. With good links in place, you can see MODEL of your conceptual space, and work with it, add parts, replace them, group them in other ways etc. Still, we have this controversial feature: EITHER you define good links OR you don't see the nodes you need and you have to resort to "usual" search, that defies the idea of VISUAL. But of course, TB is not a database per se, and it has modern search under the hood etc. Why? Because the search was possible only along pre-made links between nodes. We all know, that basically TB is "navigational database" of 1960-1970, they were later defeated and replaced by relational databases. I think, TB suffers from bad marketing and too narrow realization of its identity. But BUY it as a new program? For a such price? No.

Actually, if I would get such update in V8, I would (with big regrets) roll it back and returned to previous version. With some nice minor quality-of-life changes (new "create thought" interface, faster start, better text editor in Notes.) and WITHOUT big, important feature - Expanded view. Okay, 8.5 (for some nice, but not really important features like Timeline, MindMap etc). Without it, what we have? Actually, TB 8.2. It would be real "new start" for TheBrain. IF they coupled this new, rewritten-ground-up version with some really new, cool, flashy, BIG feature - what would be great. Probably, there was generation change among TheBrain developers, and new ones wanted to make own version, clear, comprehendable, scalable etc etc. Java is not on trend anymore, and its future is not 100% clear. I don't want to underscore those interests and preoccupations, they were also serious. The decision was not in the interests of the customers, but engineerial, in the interests of developers. Well, I think that making Version 9 such as it is was a grave mistake. I hoped you will do it better, not just trashed it (( Well, I understand that programming Expanded mode is a difficult task, with all its saves, problems with arrangements, chores of deleted and modified nodes after save was made etc. So, if you have big network with deep branching, you are out of luck ((. Totally impossible.ītw I hoped that you will allow to see more than 3 levels of nodes in Normal mode, but again - no.

Without manual arrangement of nodes it is impossible. On this stage I need to see them all, at once. Later, after I have dozens of nodes, I move to contemplation stage. Make a new node, type in a note, make a child node, sibling node etc.
But in contrast case there is a problem.įor me, "normal" mode is good at information input stage. If you have small Brain(s) with no deep nesting level, almost every view mode will work all right. Of course, it depends on TheBrain use mode. But it can't replace freeform Expanded view in no way. Look, I understand that you want to appeal to the MindMap crowd, this is good and all. Well, I understand that it is probably too late to write about it, but it is bad.
