The on-line versions of mind mapping software are bringing in a new group of users. I hope that Mindjet will be in that space soon. l don't consider MindManager Pro 7 overpriced. Last night, I produced a 239 topic map of a live debate and printed it to A3 ten minutes after the debate finished! The interactions with the audience afterwards indicated that I will earn many times more than £200 for my efforts that evening.

Mind Manager is sooooo linear and structured that it looses the impact/benefits of Mind Mapping. MindGenius (http://www.mindgenius.com.au) is middle of the road in the organic stakes - I like it because I can turn a Mind Map into an Organisation chart as well as drill down to specific branches. In MindJet I have to create a new file once the Mind Map gets too big ImindMap (http://www.imindmap.com.au) takes a bit of time to draw the map but they look great and very engaging if you are presenting I vote to use software that works like my 'creepy' organic brain - not the boring structured linear approach. cheers from downunder Jennifer http://www.buzan.com.au/ How can organic be creapy?? isn’t nature organic
