OIT Software Licensing is evaluating the current and prospective usage of TheBrain.
TheBrain focuses on connecting information instead of separating it.
TheBrain moves beyond linear folders and lists, letting you create a network of information organized the way you think about it. You don’t have to force any idea or project into a single folder. With TheBrain you can connect things to anything else.
TheBrain applies visualization to your information, creating a digital map similar to paper-based mind maps you may be familiar with, but so much more powerful.
A site license for TheBrain has been requested through our new software evaluation request form (http://oit.duke.edu/comp-print/software/request/it_request.php) for central funding/distribution, and we put together a wiki with some information on the software and some of the purchase options.
If you are interested in this software or have considered purchasing this before, we invite you to visit the wiki and comment on it. The information that we collect in this manner will help us determine whether or not central funding and distribution would be beneficial to the Duke community.
