Thinkature is a new ap I found this weekend for individuals or groups to plan and analyze info.
http://thinkature.com/

It uses a card metaphor, as well as other tools.

I found it took a long, long time to load the tutorial first time I used it. In the event the problem was the tutorial workspace itself, I changed the name of the workspace, hoping that might open up a generic workspace without content, such as the tutorial, that could slow the loading process. Unfortunately that didn't work.

Also, the registration software is outdated in that it doesn't recognize email addresses that contain dashes or dots, as in daly.de.gagne@gmail.com or daly_de_gagne@shawmail.com/ I had to create a new address to satisfy the registration software, something that I suspect most people will not do.

The tutorial has been loading for about five minutes now, so I suspect something is wrong. Disappointing, because I thought this program, from its writeup, might offer something a little different.

Of the sites I wrote about yesterday, Thinkature was the one that seemed to have the most potential.

Having gone through much aggravation to get it registered, only to find out it never fully loads, I went to forums today.

The forums presented a fairly good indication the developers did an Eric and Arnie two-step, and took off without telling anyone.

Perhaps they also are in China. Who knows?

Perhaps they were not as creative as the folk at Ultra Recall in writing plans of future intention with a creativity and ambiguity.

I hope the other sites prove to offer people something worthwhile.
