If we remember back to our grade school days, I'm sure we can recall unrolling a large piece of construction paper and adorning them with bubbles and lines, making a visual representation of our thoughts and how they connect. What seemed like just a fun exercise is actually a powerful method of organizing your ideas and giving them useful context.

This process is commonly referred to as mind-mapping and, of course, there's an app for that. PersonalBrain, available for Windows devices, takes the old-school ideation method and updates it for the app age.

Features:

Drag-and-Drop documents and web links for faster creation

Drag-and-drop functionality
Multiple versions, including a free tier
Template options (paid tiers)
Microsoft Outlook support ('Pro' tier)

The intuitive interface invites quick and easy creation and exploration of your thoughts. One of the key differentiators between PersonalBrain and other mind-mapping methods is a robust drag-and-drop functionality, particularly useful when establishing ongoing templates and versioning.

In order to make the app accessible to those who are not power users, or those that just want to dip their toes in before making the plunge, PersonalBrain is available for free for non-commercial users. It should be noted that this free option has a more limited toolset, as compared to the 'Core' and 'Pro' paid versions. The Core version allows you to attach your document files, search the web within the interface, create templates which are extensible, and even merge multiple mindmaps (called 'Brains' within the program) into one, ahem, Brain. The Pro takes things even further, with the ability to place these Brains in a calendar, print options, and deep hooks into Microsoft Outlook, which is still the business communications hub of choice for many professionals.

Mindmapping may not be for everyone, but for anyone who has some nostalgia for those grade school bubbles on construction paper, or for anyone that needs a flexible and powerful ideation tool, do yourself a favor and give PersonalBrain a try.

PersonalBrain for Windows allows you to arrange your thoughts. PersonalBrain can also help you to make charts. PersonalBrain is more effective than other programs since it lets you rearrange files and Internet sites in order for them to be more convenient. In addition, PersonalBrain is a laid back software that can join your thoughts together. Besides that, it has been downloaded several times.

A note editor packed with awesome features and much reliability to make your work easier. This software is what coders and software engineers need in ensuring well-coordinated work. The styling and over 900+ font templates bring out some of its beauty. Why don't you check it out to have a feel of its aura?

I can't live without this tool. I always got information overload when researching different topics online. What this does is allow me to take all my files from my computer and online websites and create visual maps and diagrams that help to organize my workflows and the evolution of my research and findings. I can divide the "data" into various topics about me like Work and Hobbies, and it keeps everything neatly organized. What's really cool is how it will connect items from all over and keep track of important specifics like dates and to-do lists. It's like taking your brain and putting it in its own little personal program.

PersonalBrain for Windows is a software for mind-mapping that allows you to map your ideas very easily. The PersonalBrain app is used to create diagrams, networking and simply sketching out your thoughts. Your thoughts are transformed to something concrete using the app, you can also drag and drop files and web pages into the mind map to add more usefulness. one major problem of the software app is that it allows export in HTML only.                        

Ben

Awesome mind mapping app. I will use this to format my thoughts and ideas. I like it very much, it's easier than other apps to use, and has many useful functions. Biggest pro is it allows you to upload content which other mind mapping programs do not let you do. This is cool thanks.
