Mindmapping has been more and more becoming a popular way for making list
or brainstorming. While almost mind map users will suggest applications
like XMind
or Freemind
to edit and manage your maps, MindMeister
is a web-based mind mapping tool which is worth to try.
So what is a mind map? In short, mind map is a diagram of related
information around a key idea. Wikipedia
says a mind map is: A
mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other
items linked to and arranged radially around a central key word or
idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure,
and
classify ideas, and as an aid in study, organization, problem
solving, decision making, and writing.
Web-based mind mapping tool like MindMeister
offers easy and simple features to create mind maps on the go or
collaboratively. However, MindMeister
is a great tool to begin if you have not tried a mind mapping tool yet
because you can use MindMeister
to create a simple mind map without the need of installing an
application.
After signing up, you are provided two secret email addresses from MindMeister:
one to add to an existing map, and one to make new maps. You just send
an indented list of items to that address via email, then MindMeister will
create a new map or add the node to your default map, relying on which
address you used.
As a developer for desktop applications and web, you can access and
change private and public mind maps on MindMeister via API.
MindMeister
allows some power user features such as cooperate with other users on
the same mind map at the same time, and the ability to import mind maps
from other mind mapping applications. Your MindMeister
dashboard shows you which mind maps you have shared, kept private, or
published.
