The Brain system employs a graphical user interface to facilitate user interaction with highly flexible, associative "matrices" that enable users to conveniently organize digitally-stored "thoughts" (inter-related information) and their network of inter-relationships. Generally, ways are provided for interacting with the Brain by means of unidirectional messaging, including without limitation e-mail, instant message, paging, SMS, phone calls or even computer-generated postal mail. The system can update users of changes or other events by those means, and users can input queries, navigation, new data or other commands to the system by those means. Sending new users unidirectional messages that display interactive views of the Brain fosters viral propagation of an alternative user interface. Means are also provided for synchronizing local versions of common data repositories with centrally-stored versions of the same using those same sorts of general purpose unidirectional messaging methods.
