What Is A Mind Map
What is mind mapping
Short answer: A very useful image based method for brainstorming.
However, this short answer only covers a fraction of what mind mapping is about. And of course there is a more precise description of mind mapping available at Wikipedia.
Mind mapping is about collecting ideas arranged in a tree like diagram. From a programmers point of view, the creation of such diagrams requires graphical processing. As web browsers weren’t able to do graphical processing for a long time, such applications only existed as classical desktop applications which had to be installed. But times have changed, computers got faster and browsers became more powerful. Mind Mapping is now available as a pure web application – with all its advantages. And because of this, no installation required and your work is accessible anywhere you have an internet connection!
Being a web application, Mind42.com enables another interesting feature realizable on the web: collaboration. Brainstorming is no single user activity – the more people take part in a brainstorming session, the better the results will be. When using mind42, every participant of a brainstorming session has an immediately updated view onto all the already collected ideas.
KickInTheButt.com uses a website called Mind42.com for all of our mind mapping. By using the web based version we can collaborate with ease, and work on out mind maps from anywhere. It truly is amazing to say the least.
