JB,

If anything that has an inherent use is bigger than Facebook (which, I agree, is next to pointless), it’s rather a barbed compliment!  But I’ll leave that ...

To me at least, anybody who advocates a task and time management system is in danger of coming across as pompous (Dave Allen, Michael Linenberger and co. included) because they assume that everybody works the way they do, and that because it works for them it works for everybody.  I am not a fan of Dave Allen, Michael Linenberger or their systems.  There is no advantage in their systems for me, and I don’t see any in yours. I’m sure you’re not deliberately pompous, but in one of your posts, for example, you say your system “radically different”.  I can’t see anything in it that people aren’t already doing, so it just appears to be hyperbole to me, which immediately raises my hackles.  Dave Allen etc. are the same and get short shrift from me in my reviews of their books.

Talking of books, instead of having 9 or whatever web sections to describe what your system does, how about a properly structured (e-)book so that we don’t have to peck around trying to work out what you’re trying to tell us?

It might be wonderful for some people, but not for me. 

In opposition to some of the other posters, I do appreciate (short!) videos and would never download software that didn’t at least include screen dumps on the site. 

Sorry, BrainStormWFO just isn’t something I need - I don’t have that mental fragmentation issue that it seems to have been created for.
