LEARNING ABOUT THINKTANK
Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION TO THINKTANK
ThinkTank (tm) is a visual tool for working with ideas
and information on your personal computer. The ThinkTank
program uses the familiar format of an outline to help you
generate, organize, store, and retrieve ideas with remarkable
ease and efficiency. It is the first idea processor.
ThinkTank is flexible; you can apply it in many ways. It
can serve as your:
* notebook
* address book
* appointment calendar
* card file
* file folder
* file cabinet
* secretary
* administrative assistant
* bulletin board
Because ThinkTank is electronic, you can examine, add, alter,
reorganize, print, or delete your information in seconds.
ThinkTank’s flexibility means that you can adapt it to
your needs and applications. You can choose what kind of in—
formation to store in ThinkTank and how to organize it. You
can use it to write a memo, store a customer list, look up a
telephone number, organize a report, record a family tree, or
catalogue a stamp-collection. Box 1—1, which lists representa-
tive uses of ThinkTank, contains just a fraction of its many
applications. ThinkTank is like having an administrative
genie at your beck and call.
