Brainstorming Ideas: Old vs. New

In elementary school, we were taught the writing web to enhance and organize our initial ideas. We put our main idea onto a piece of paper, circle it and all the details that pop into our heads. Eventually, we end up with a sheet full of words, circles and lines.

At ^IfMine, ideas can Evolve over and over again and the thought process can grow as you invite others to join a project.
