Wow. I have been doing this for years, I didn't know it had a name and was a popular way to arrange one's ideas. I wasn't even sure what to call it, but it looked almost exactly like these diagrams.

Interesting!

I've been looking for a tool like of this sort for a long time. I can remember, on many occasions, brainstorming about a semantic organization system to make it easier to delve into complex topics from a simple overview.

Having tried many of the widely used technologies like del.icio.us, I was disappointed in the fact that it didn't posses the flexibility and simplicity of these tools.

It is nice to see that such a system now exists and is freely available. Just tried out FreeMind and found it to be a very well suited tool that I plan on integrating into my web site (http://www.mystrangemind.com/) eventually. One feature that really is impressive is the ability to output the mind graph in multiple web formats.

These sorts of tools, especially once they mature, have great potential to revolutionize the way information is displayed and organized. Project design and management could also be efficiently easily organized with this tool. This certainly opens up a great many possibilities.

I used the mindmap when is was seeking a job, as a firechief some years ago and I asked the persons who were present at the company if they knew the system, and they didnt so I explained and they were very impressed. My presentation was so good that they offered me the job, and the most important tool was the mindmap system and ofcourse my experience. Back then it was drawed on paper. So I will try some of these systems surggested by Dr. Mercola. Thank you for that.

Love and light Torben

Mind mapping is a helpful tool that I use frequently. I tried most of the applications listed by Lifehack in the article. I ended up using two applications regularly that are not listed.

My favorite is cmap.

Not quite as useful for me, but worth looking at, is Compendium.

Both are free. Both are helpful if you want to solve problems or if you want to share what you know with others.
