Dutch photographer Anne Reitsma portrays student Lisa of the Faculty of Architecture reading the mind map book (click image to enlarge).

The business mind map book “Meer inzicht en overzicht met mindmappen” was published exactly one year ago on the 24th of February 2011. It occupied the top 100 of Management Books for 150 days (today it ranks at no. 76). It shows that there is a great interest in practice-proven mind maps in business. A second updated edition is in the making.

Chuck Frey made a visual analysis of available mind maps apps for the iPad and concludes that ” there are many developers fighting for the lowest end of the market” and that there are not much difference at the high-end of the market. I think he’s wrong. Chuck just made the wrong graph. If you map the apps on the basis of functionality and exchangeability (export to various mind map formats) – two very important features for mind map apps – there is a lot of difference. The map supports the comments by Andrew Wilcox that price is not an issue and that iThoughts HD should be higher. It is striking that the rating by customers in the iTunes store match the position in the graph.

The making of Hollis Brown

mastermindmaps — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 12:06:49 +0000

Made this mind map in realtime while viewing the YouTube film The making of the Ballad of Hollis Brown (scan the QR code to watch it). It is so difficult to beat a Dylan original (Lou Reed did with his version of Foot of pride), however Rise Against just did that on the Amnesty compilation. They stayed true to the song’s intention, while at the same time intensifying it (the sketch is from the studio recording how they did it). Well done.

Connecting…..things

This is hot. The Internet of Things (IoT). In 2020 an estimated 50 billions things will be connected. Will it lead us to a more sustainable world? Or will it bring more risks?

Input is welcomed and will be incorporated in this mind map.

Three rules

This mind map is inspired by the one made by Philippe Packu. Mine maps my associations with the number 3. Both are pretty complementary, showing that three is not an ordinary number. While making this mind map, I noticed that by rotating 3 you will get the Greek letter Omega. Making the number 3 even more mythical.

Got this idea in the train and immediately made a sketch on the iPad using the app Sketch Rolls.

Scan the QR codes for some of the CD reviews on Internet.

For the mind mappers: I made this mind map on the iPad while listening to the CD’s using IThoughts HD. Converted the final file to iMindmap (using my graph settings).
