A GLAD (GLobal ADvertising) is the main tool used to advertise on GLBrain. A GLAD will always be linked to a GLOpinion or a LOpinion and target the interested audience. A GLAD's focus can be narrowed down by its creator through selecting specific users within the statistic tool. GLADs be shown directly to all users matching the selected statistic pattern when opening the related Glopinion or Lopinion or having it added to their MyBrain. Users can browse GLADs via the select "GLAD" function to see GLADs for different statistic profiles.
GLADs offer the most direct way to address the interested audience selected by statistics. The GLAD Creation Tool allows the user to create, customize and publish advertising messages.
Within GLBrain the user can communicate through messages called Gloms. A "Special Glom" is a specific function within a GLAD, enabling the interested user to request further information from its creator.
There are two types of Glads available for use on GLBrain, the Standard Glad and the Poster Glad. The Standard Glad enables the creator to customize his advertising including text, colors, and do use linking and embedding functions.
The Poster Glad displays advertisements as they would be presented in a print medium. It also allows embedding a video instead of simply a picture.
Once a user has added a GLOpinion or a LOpinion to his MyBrain section, he will automatically receive a notification whenever a new Glad targeting his statistic group is available.
A GLOMO (GLObal MOvement) can be created by users to utilize the power and interest of the masses in order to bring upon changes in certain social areas of concern and to initiate change.
Any user can join a movement by simply clicking the "Join" button located on the movement page. By adding the movement to their personal MyBrain section, users can see and monitor the number of participants that are already part of that group.
Users can post comments on any published text available on the network. All comments can be seen and/ or rated by other users. Comments also include a direct link to the creator's profile.
"Statistics" is a central function of all GLBrain tools designed to represent and summarize user interests as well as displaying various user demographics. Basic statistics can be viewed by anyone via the "Statistics" button free of charge, however in depth statistics can be acquired through payment within the "Detailed Statistics" tool. Statistics also are the key element for creation and purchase of Glads, Gloms and Special Gloms.
With this function creators of any movement can inform/ update members of the group about upcoming events regarding that GLOMO. Users receive these updates only by adding the GLOMO to their individual MyBrain section.
The "Results" functions can be used by the creator to give feedback to users about the outcome or current effect of the issue at hand. Users can see those results only after expressing particular interest in the issue by adding it to their MyBrain section.
The Share option enables the users to share any content they wish on other social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, etc. Shared content will automatically be posted to the users personal profile of the chosen social network. Content can also be shared via email. There is a direct link back to the shared content on GLBrain.
The GLOVO (GLObal VOting), is used to create a ballot, on a subject created within the network. Users can either choose "Yes" or "No", or "Only yes" or "Only no", depending on the creator's movement structure preferences.
The voting function enables users to take part in a ballot or debate existing within the network. It gives each individual user the opportunity to voice their opinions and concerns about certain subject matters and to cast a vote. By adding the GLOVO to their personal MyBrain section users can see/ monitor the number of voters that are already part of that group.
Users can post comments on any published text available on the network. All comments can be seen and/ or rated by other users. Comments also include a direct link to the creator's profile.

Articles can be created in response to any GLOpinion or LOpinion with the intention of providing additional information about a certain subject.

Articles are designed to help expand and elaborate on content presented to the user within the network.

GLBrain offers to send messages to users who added a Glopinion, Lopinion, GLOMO or GLOVO to their MyBrain in exchange for a fee. The target group for such message can further be narrowed down by its creator by selecting specific user groups within the statistic tool.
Gloms are shown directly to all users matching the selected statistic pattern when opening the related GLOpinion, LOpinion, GLOMO or GLOVO in their MyBrain.
