JB,

I think you need to decide if you’re selling software or propagating a new information management system.  I thought initially it was the latter, but all I could really find on your page was information about BrainStormWFO.  If you want to try to do both, you need to be clearer and separate these goals on the site better.

I’m aware that you didn’t make the bigger than Facebook/Twitter claim, but if somebody said to me that an outliner software (which won’t need to be used by 750 million users) was comparable to a social media site (how and why they should be comparable I don’t know), I would have assumed that somebody was taking the piss, and would certainly never have written it on my site or in any marketing material!

I’m aware that some of what you wrote might come over better in the USA, but as the site can be viewed from anywhere it needs to be toned down - from my side of the Atlantic it just seems brash.

I am being negative - sorry about that - but if you promise a revolution and just deliver a simple (though no doubt worthy) single pane outliner software, people are apt to become miffed.  But I also appreciate that your bravery in opening yourself up for our broadsides, so you get brownie points for that!

Cheers!

Graham
