3D Topicscape Lite
3D Topicscape Lite uses the concept-mapping or mindmapping approach to allow ideas and information to be organized, but in place of the usual 2D sheet, it works in 3D. This lets you plan your work as the ideas flow and see your to do list in an unlimited 3D mindmapping landscape. ( Comparison of Lite and Pro versions: http://www.topicscape.com/Pro-features.php ). If you think visually, you now have a new way of managing To Do list, projects and organizing information, computer files, and web pages. Concept mapping and mindmapping are powerful tools. But a major challenge for business users of mindmaps or concept mapping 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 mindmapping software to organize and store files, you will appreciate Topicscape's ability to store multiple files at any node (topic). Users can find their 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 (or up) 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. There is an example of how one user learned its value at http://www.topicscape.com/user-story/project-management.html. Other user stories there show how it has been used for business, projects and hobbies. This is a shareware listed under business pims, calendars category.

TopicCrunch
Imagine if you could . . . - have a *duplicate-free list* of domains of companies in your line of business - easily *check your own website's position* on the three main search engines when up to four sets of keywords or phrases are used - keep *tabs on your competitors' positions* for the same (or other) keyword sets . . . and all this in the background, while you get on with something else. *TopicCrunch can do that for you*. And that's not all . . . - often you can go deeper than 1,000 results in a single run - you can pull out the results in a hyperlinked web page - choose the sequence for the results: Domain name, best hit or average rank - or, if you like, analyze the results in a spreadsheet - it provides an easy-to-use, comprehensive "OR" facility that lets you search on up to four variations of your search phrase or keyword -- good for plurals and common mis-spellings; - it has fast or detailed modes for single-domain checks - it has search-engine-friendly sleep periods Do if you want to answer the question "On the Web, who is selling ..." or "Which sites have information about ..." or even "How is my web site doing in the search engine rankings with my chosen keywords?", TopicCrunch needs serious consideration. Topicscape is a tool for a special type of web searching that will be useful to all web users, and especially to market researchers and to web designers concerned about Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
