Yes, I have tried TheBrain. I absolutely *love* the idea of it but I absolutely *hated* the implementation. The problem is that some of us think visually i.e. in pictures and with The Brain everything leaps around all over the place. And do one's brain photos of the data never seem to match up. Eventually gave me a huge headache rather quickly!
