Mind maps - taken a step beyond

During our MBA year some of us might have spotted a young doctor amongst us taking his first steps into mindmapping...
note: a free version is available on sourceforge.net



Now, take a peak at this 3d mind mapping tool for use in virtual words (e.g. SecondLife) : spatialmap.org

for more whacky virtual-world thinking, take a peak here

another social mind mapping tool - this one for online collaboration: http://www.mindmeister.com/

...so it is not just your mind that you are expunging into digital format

The Art&Design mindmap is really beautiful. Who has made it. I would really like to se the uncut version of the image.

Anybody knows where to find it?

Alexis said...

Daniel, those images are hosted on different websites (follow the weblinks).

The "Art&Design" URL is: http://www.nationalpriorities.org.uk/Resources/EA/ArgyllBute/ObanHigh/IanGowdie/IaGo_J001ArtdepMindmap.jpg

It would seem that this was created through a Scottish Government initiative, Scottish Interaction Technology Centre (SITC), and I believe it was the work of Ian Gowdie of Oban High School. This I have inferred from the URL and some brief investigation.

...no doubt more information can be found with more web searching/browsing!

Just found you. I'm one of the Mind Map practitioners. This year I had done 137 MindMap. Fantastic tools. Really help to make planning simple and easy.
