I also found some old paper mindmaps that I made before I bought MindManager.<br />We have been using Freemind for a while at the corporate level and it is a great little product for a perfect price.<br />I am also involved in a group that is looking at modernizing Compendium which is an open source multi-dimensional mapping tool. It is also used a lot for dialogue mapping. I use it for problems that do not fit on a two dimensional page very well. If you start to get a lot of links between nodes on a 2D mindmap, you are developing an idea that really is multi-dimensional.Ron Wheelerhttp://www.artifact-software.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439841994363900455.post-79683212799413141582012-12-15T12:56:21.408-05:002012-12-15T12:56:21.408-05:00One of the reasons I fell in love with my iPhone e...One of the reasons I fell in love with my iPhone early on was that it gives me so many opportunities to create, capture ideas (verbal & visual), connect with others and learn on the go, anytime, anywhere. (A good data plan helps! lol!) <br /><br />I recommend you take a listen to a podcast that features Dan as he basically goes through the same ideas and such as I heard at Rotman. Well worth the time.

I love the whiteboard for thinking things through too. I'll have to check out those apps for whiteboarding on the go.

I have a big whiteboard up on my wall for mind-mapping purposes and love how it helps me work through roadblocks, connect ideas and create new ones. <br /><br />I will now be checking out Mindmeister...

I just completed a Business Analysis course on tools and techniques and Mind Mapping blew me away. It uses visuals to convey information in a way that the brain works (both sides).<br /><br />I've used it since in a few projects. There's even an app for that! (Actually several).<br /><br />Mindmeister is my current fave.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02431929899051792806noreply@blogger.com
