FreeMind is a premier free mind-mapping (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map) software written in Java. The recent development has hopefully turned it into high productivity tool. We are proud that the operation and navigation of FreeMind is faster than that of MindManager because of one-click "fold / unfold" and "follow link" operations.

So you want to write a completely new metaphysics? Why don't you use FreeMind? You have a tool at hand that remarkably resembles the tray slips of Robert Pirsig, described in his sequel to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance called Lila. Do you want to refactor your essays in a similar way you would refactor software? Or do you want to keep personal knowledge base, which is easy to manage? Why don't you try FreeMind? Do you want to prioritize, know where you are, where you've been and where you are heading, as Stephen Covey would advise you? Have you tried FreeMind to keep track of all the things that are needed for that?

I have been using this tool for only ten minutes and already I love it! The java is fast loading and without some of the usually visual bugs. The export formats cover just about any situation with Flash, Javascript and XML formats and much more.


Happy Publishing!

FreeMind works with some of the on-line (also free mind mappers). This is great for collaboration. Use FreeMind on the beach or in the garden, later when you have web access, you can upload the map (.mm file) to Mind42, MindMeister, Comapping or WiseMapping and share it with colleagues, fellow students or friends for collaboration. You can get it back to FreeMind later if you like.

I've recently pulled together in one place the details of all of the web-based ones, over at
http://www.mind-mapping.org/web-based-mindmappers/

This shows what's free (and how much the subscriptions are for the others), what can import and export FreeMind maps and, of course, where to find them.
