Collaborative Mind Mapping
I like Mind Mapping — basically visual outlining with as many interconnections as you like. I don’t love Mind Mapping, but I like it well enough to try out software.
Here are two tools for collaborative Mind Mapping that I’m considering using in upcoming talks:
XMind – Mind Mapping and Storming.
(Bonus points to Mind 42 for Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy reference.)
My favorite tool is still MindManager on a Tablet PC.
Might want to look at MindMeister (http://www.mindmeister.com/). I like it better then Mind42.
Freemind is also a nice tool. Fewer features than full blown tools, but truly trivial to navigate and get on to the screen quickly the various neuron firings.
