Mind Mapping made easy

So, you know those stories of the business plan written on a napkin or beer mat? Or those guys with the big glass screen drawing up their plan to take over the whatsit market? Well, if you ever felt like you aren’t that cool and that you can’t draw a square never mind a process flow, have I found the site for you. Check out www.exploratree.org.uk

Here you will find easy to use (and understand) tools or frameworks for thinking through an issue and considering different aspects or perspectives.  Choose from a set of templates to analyse or appraise anything in a structured way, from SWOT analysis to a Futures Wheel that will help you think through the consequences and knock-on effects of a problem. 

You can also create your own mind map once you get the hang of things and then you can save them, share them and edit them. Then you can present your ideas, add them as project documentation, send to a group or syndicate for input and comment plus a host of other great features.  And best of all, it’s FREE!  All you have to do is register and have Flash on your machine and away you go! Go on Exploratree.

Oh, and if you’re Welsh, there’s a bunch of maps just for you. Detholiad o drefnwyr meddwl yn Gymraeg.
