Questions & Answers

Is this similar to the the "Personal Brain" (thebrain.com) and can it integrate with iCal or is there something better for project management?

I found a visual information management product called "PersonalBrain" (thebrain.com) and it looks interesting but I want it to integrate with iCal and my Bookmarks, etc., things I'm already using. I don't want to recreate things I already have going instead I want to integrate information into one place. Is this a good option or are there better things?

  • From the 5.0 notes on their website:
    Mac OS X Integrations
    o PersonalBrain now works with many of the built in applications on your Mac. o Spotlight
     PersonalBrain search is now much more powerful on Mac OS. Spotlight integration lets you search inside file attachments both those contained inside your Brain and externally linked right from inside PersonalBrain.
    o Address Book, iCal, and Apple Mail  Integrate your contacts from Address Book, events from iCal, and even message from Apple
    Mail directly with the Thoughts in your Brain. Whenever you do a search in PersonalBrain, information from these application appears automatically and a single click adds it into your Brain where you can link it to other Thoughts and put into the context of your digital mind.
    o QuickLook  The power of QuickLook is now built right into PersonalBrain.
