3D Topicscape Personal Edition uses the concept-mapping or mind mapping approach to allow ideas and information to be organized, but in place of the usual 2D sheet, it works in 3D. This sparks creativity and innovation by providing a tool to capture ideas - as they flow - in an unlimited 3D "mind-mapping" landscape. If you think visually, you now have a new way of managing projects and organizing information, computer files, and web pages. Concept mapping and mind mapping are powerful tools in business. But a major challenge for business users of mind maps or concept maps comes when the practical limits of a flat sheet are reached. This happens on any substantial project, yet that is the time when you most need the ability to scan the information landscape. 3D Topicscape overcomes this by allowing effectively unlimited levels of hierarchy. It provides zooming, and flight through the information landscape. And if you use mind-mapping software to organize and store files, you will appreciate Topicscape's ability to store multiple files at any node (topic). You can find information using the instant word search, but the right keyword or phrase doesn't always come to mind. Then, Topicscape's powerful concept searching comes into play: By flying and zooming in the 3D landscape, and digging down to different levels, success is much more likely. And a topic is allowed to appear in more than one place. Each will be just another instance of the same topic - change one and they all change. Topicscape is a valuable addition to the toolbox of project managers, researchers, legal professionals, consultants, medical professionals and anyone struggling with information overload. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.
