In a world where within a line of many very fine products, it is Mindmanager, a “commercial” slick crap product ( but so easy to use, and so pretty ) just good for making thought-alienating / thought-reducing ( instead of thought-enhancing ) “presentations” - refer in this respect to the critic on MS Powerpoint, also devoid of a symbol cloning feature, whichout of which it isn’t but a graphically prettified flat items list -, is considered the “best” ( place 1 in that list, you don’t believe your eyes ), nobody should be surprised ( see Economics of PIMs here ) that there is a gulf between price and value. But this ridiculous “number 1” for Mindmanager proves I’m right in having said, make your product slick enough for the masses, and they will make their bosses buy in numbers… but then, bear in mind the numerous appeals of MS Word for the masses you’ll have to overcome in order to make a strike with an outliner. There is a lot possible learning out there once you observe the real world, but 95 people out of 100 “learn” what you present them to “learn”, hence the importance of products like MindManipulator, sorry IManageYourMind, sorry MindManager TM. Thinking hasn’t been delegated to software… but to other people. They think you for, and you like believing the results are in your interest. It’s all about NLP, and in an NLP crap world, MM is placed number 1. I’m not surprised.
