Yeah, I use it the Pro Version of PersonalBrain. Topicscape does the same thing for 100 bucks. But for me, the interface is not as intuitive.
DeepaMehta is FREE. But you have to noodle around to figure out how it works. If you are in a Ph.D. program for a few years or something then the $250 for PB is pretty cheap when amortized over time. I mean it's just 2 more text books. But of course it's your call.
