Writing screenplays used to be a difficult process where it was
difficult to find the portion of the screenplay to edit, keeping
track of the storyline could be difficult, writer's block was common,
and you really couldn't "play with" the script to get it right.
These problems are a thing of the past with ScriptMapping

software built in to NovaMind mind mapping software. It allows the

attach portions of the screenplay to different branches of the mind
maps. The screenplay can be reorganized just by dragging the branches
into different locations. Experimental screenwriting is now possible
through the ability to disable the printing or export of the script
on specific branches of the Mind Map. Visual storyboarding is
accomplished by attaching images to the branches, or creating links
to movies and other resources where required.

Seapine Software Quality-Ready Assessment results
Lack of Test Case Management Threatens Software Quality
Seapine Software Quality-Ready Assessment results indicate that many QA
departments use inefficient methods to track test cases
Mason, OH--June 26, 2008--According to results from the Seapine Software
Quality-Ready Assessment (QRA), only 29 percent of organizations use a test
case management application. The survey also found that:
* 18 percent perform ad hoc testing
* 16 percent document tests as they go
* 21 percent document tests in advance but use a paper-based system
This means 55 percent of organizations use inefficient methods to manage
their testing.

still in its infancy," says Richard Riccetti, president and CEO, Seapine
Software. "Developers have used change and defect management applications
for years to improve quality and efficiency, but QA departments are just
now moving to electronic tracking systems."
