"The Brain" has a lot more eye candy; I've never used it though.

I do use IQNotes on my PDA. I don't know whether "free" is a requirement for you. I believe there is a "non-PDA" version of IQNotes.

I figured you used MSProject to map your Dbase configuration in.
But no , I do not know Freemind, although it looks pretty open to me.

After having mapped thru Freemind, you might use Ishikawa to anlyse it ?

Click "test shareware version" for free software.

Cheers, Ron

Thanks fro the feedback Monkey & Rak. I downloaded the Freemind and I am tinkering with it to see what advantages it has over Visio, which has a mind map feature...

Ken,

I did a download of freemind , but can't get it to work.
Is it supposed to work with MS Office or any other ?
Would appreciate if you elaborate on this.

Cheers, Ron

We use MindJet as a mind mapping software at work.

I used Tony Buzan's version a long time ago, a very long time ago. The original was good, for it's time, so presumably it's got better. The version I used was version 1.2 I think. Perfect for training notes.

I've used them a ton of times. In fact I did my degree using them as my main form of note taking. They are good because they provide an easily viewable structure to the information. This provides hooks for your memory.
