Interesting too, thanks for sharing the link! If you are interested in a similar "mindmap" tool, I've used this one with some success: http://www.xmind.net/ I used it to pull together my research on hosted email a while back. It helped me create a document that was used in a presentation but I didn't really try showing the mindmap itself except in committee. I get a lot of value out of the free version myself.

I own a copy of MindJet Manager, a tool that allows for creative thinking and identifying relationships between disparate ideas. It integrates with MS Office and Outlook. If used in a meeting and projected onto a whitescreen, or over a network using a SharePoint server, participants can use visual thinking to see connections that a sequential description doesn't reveal. This isn't anything new, even Visio has a Mind-mapping component. http://www.mindjet.com __ Andy From: Bruce Roy V Sent: Friday, December 02, 2011 10:34 AM To: Wilson Andrew F Subject: FW: [oagitm] Agenda Automation Tools Andy... do you use anything special for the great agenda's you create for the quarterly meetings?
