The leading provider of dynamic mind mapping software, TheBrain Technologies, announced its newest release, a complimentary upgrade for all PersonalBrain 4.0 users loaded with new features and a powerful new backend for its rapidly growing cross platform user base, PersonalBrain 4.5.

PersonalBrain helps people make sense of the wide range of information they need to organize and assimilate on a daily basis. Creating an expansive and personalized network of information that visualizes key relationships and connections from the user's perspective, the software is so flexible and fluid that users can link any file or concept to anything else. Business users, scholars and hobbyists are provided by this intelligent view with a powerful context for research, analysis and decision making. With PersonalBrain users can activate any Thought in their Brain instantly, discover related information, remember ideas or tasks, and enhance their overall understanding of their digital world and information.

Chief Technology Officer of TheBrain, Harlan Hugh, declared: "With PersonalBrain 4.5's optimized performance and highly scalable database, users can create an unlimited number of Thoughts in their Brains." He added: "PersonalBrain 4.5 gives users the power to create their own knowledgebase that encapsulates literally everything. After using the software, standard folders and search lists feel barren and meaningless. Your digital Brain increases your personal productivity while providing meta-awareness and higher level of consciousness on otherwise invisible information relationships and concepts."
