ThoughtOffice Communicator is a powerful creativity & brainstorming program based on IdeaFisher's legendary method of Associative Thinking. Associative Thinking (or Lateral Thinking) is the creative process of following links between ideas by connecting words, phrases, concepts, & experiences. ThoughtOffice uses this process to trigger associations from ideas & knowledge you already have stored in your brain. It also builds new associations, prompted by open-ended questions from communications experts, plus powerful associative searches using the built-in idea-search engine. ThoughtOffice Communicator combines these potent tools to help you take any topic, current event, or idea, and turn it into a compelling presentation. Starting with expert-level queries used by reknowned speakers & writers, CEOs, & MBAs from several different business & communication-related fields, you will drill down on & greatly expand on your topic or task expertly & creatively. Next, use the integrated idea search engine to rapidly and dramatically expand your associative thinking process. The IdeaBrowser search engine helps you quickly & easily find new associations in the form of images, definitions, quotes, lyrics, & more, plucking fresh content & related concepts from our massive databases, and adding this rich new content to your session. ThoughtOffice also gives you a place to organize it all, merging your research, comments, & conclusions into a Brainstorming Session to save and share. Sessions can be directly displayed during your presentation using the built-in Slideshow viewer, printed in 4 different formats, exported as an HTML or text file, or converted into a PDF file. And the Session Document carries your embedded ID and notice. There's no question where an idea originated in a ThoughtOffice Session. And ThoughtOffice is guaranteed. If the program doesn't meet your needs, we'll refund your purchase in full. ThoughtOffice is available for Windows XP/Vista/7 and Mac OS X.

Before we begin: We designed ThoughtOffice to be the most effective tool for helping you * get and stay creative * for solving big problems, and * hand-off your idea to someone who can make a product from it. We're a small company with a real passion for the creative process. It's a driving passion for us. With that in mind, the license agreement below reflects our understanding of you and the market in general: you need to be creative at work, where you get paid. You need to be able to take your ideas, and your idea-development tools with you. And most of you have an office at home that you frequent. Having your software handy there makes sense. So if you skip to page 2 of this agreement, we provide you a solution to all three. As long as you're the user of the program, we think that's fair. Now, if you need more seats than that, we have some great price breaks and multi-user agreements that give you discounts. You can effectively load more than 10,000 machines with ThoughtOffice, all cranking out creative solutions and solving problems. Imagine the power of everyone in your office tapping the fast-growing databases that make up ThoughtOffice... or grabbing intelligent processes and lines of thinking to help accelerate and improve a solution, make a killer client presentation, create the next great product. So, with that in mind, we hope you find this license usable. And if you need something more, please contact us at www.ThoughtRod.com or 360-450-6888. To your creative success, Mark Alan Effinger CEO / Chief Evangelist ThoughtOffice Corporation. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ThoughtOffice Corporation LICENSE AGREEMENT AND WARRANTY DISCLAIMER License for a ThoughtOffice Corporation software product and all associated files, including installer archive and all related documentation {"Software Product"} IMPORTANT -- READ CAREFULLY: By using the Software Product; or if applicable, by clicking the "I Agree" button in the installer archive or Software Product, you agree to be and are hereby bound by the terms of this License Agreement {"Agreement"}.
