All software packages in Vic’s Picks are also in the Master List, but the reverse isn’t true: Many in the Master List do not meet the criteria for notability to appear in Vic’s Picks – no longer supported perhaps, or have achieved little popularity.
If you know of software that is not included in the Master List which is a mapping application, or is used to organise information visually, please suggest it by adding a comment here.
If you know of software that is not included in Vic’s Picks but which you believe is significant and in the mainstream of mapping, you may suggest it by adding a comment here.
If there is software in Vic’s Picks that you have used, please tell us about it. Just add a comment to the appropriate post to tell other readers about its user friendliness, reliability and functionality.
Hey there Vic –
First: Love this site. It’s been a great place for all the consolidated information I was looking for, for mind mapping as a starting point.
I am hoping to make a few comments on the software you’ve found in the next few weeks as I have tested just over 40 mind mapping (or self-proclaimed mapping) tools in the last three weeks and I’m putting a review together for it soon. I will let you know when it’s ready to go.
Thanks again!
Hello Michael,
Thanks, looking forward to that.
Vic
Firsly, I’d like to thank you for a very useful resource, I had no idea there was so much mind mapping software out there.
I’m looking for a simple map that I can inbed into a web page and accepts shortened hyperlinks.
Here is my trial site:
http://www.gadgettree.co/comersus/store/Gadget_mind_map.asp
Now I’ve contacted bubbl.us and they say from 1/1/2011 there will only be version 2 and that will not have an inbed facility.
I’ve downoladed and tried about 6 lots of software, but none suit. I wonder if you can recommend any that would fulfil this simple task?
Hi Perry,
Hold on, it may not be a problem after all. I contacted the bubbl.us developers and they replied to my query about the removal of embedding capability: “we are now considering adding it on – multiple people people are asking about it.”
Let’s see how it develops, and I’ll investigate other options if necessary.
Vic
