Brainwriting Pool focuses on one concrete job: silent written brainstorm - pass and build on others' ideas. That makes it most useful for starting a visual from an empty workspace or a focused prompt. The page sits at the intersection of brainstorming and brainstorming, rather than trying to replace a general-purpose document editor.
