What they say:  " ConnectedText is a simple but powerful personal Wiki system. With it you can store ideas, pieces of information found in the Web, thoughts, code snippets, recipes, lists, linking them with ease. Like a notebook in which any topic can be linked to any other. Take a tour to see some screen shots.
ConnectedText is more than a personal information system, it is a workpad for ideas and thoughts. With its available tools navigating between topics is a breeze. With the tremendous quantity of information available nowadays, a tool like ConnectedText is important and necessary. With it you can collect all relevant information you find, organize and link them."
Observations:  Normally I wouldn't include Wikis in here, but this product includes a graphics front-end

What they say:  " CONSIDEO MODELER allows you to mind-map a complex problem, analyse it qualitatively to discover levers and bottlenecks, and even to simulate it by automatically building a system dynamics model. One can integrate any external data and setup a customized management cockpit for playing out scenarios. It is useful for organizational problems, project management, financial analysis, production processes, score cards, and much more."
Observations:  This is much more than mind mapping software - it covers simulation and modelling. But it does have a strong mind mapping component that provides the ability to record values on edges, and therefore the raw material for the simulations it runs.
The Mac version is for OS 10.4 ('Tiger') only.

OS: Linux, Mac, Windows
Price:  EUR75 (Starter); EUR595 (Modeler); EUR1,785 (Process Modeler).

What they say:  " iThoughts is a mind mapping tool that runs on your iPod Touch or iPhone. It enables you to create, view, edit, upload and download mind maps in Freemind and OPML compatible file formats. iThoughtsHD runs on the iPad."
Observations:  I have successfully imported large FreeMind maps to iThoughts. With such a tiny screen, a large map is hard to make use of on an iPhone, but that's hardly iThoughts' fault. On iPad, it's a different story and I see plenty of comments praising iThoughts HD.
Many iPhone apps have limited documentation. iThoughts' is exemplary and can be found here:

Concept maps and web research

For me, web research and concept maps are a good pairing. As I research - I build a map. As I map - I realise new areas that need research.
This papers variously by Arguedas, Cañas, Carnot, Carvalho, Dunn, Eskridge, Gram, Leake, Maguitman, Muldoon and Reichherzer have helped me to understand why, and see other possibilities.

Assessment by concept map

This piece discusses the nature of knowledge, the difficulty in measuring achievement in the three types of domain knowledge, and how concept maps offer one way of judging students' knowledge structure.

Framework for mind mapping

Here is a link to a set of free templates for many types of mind maps. This is good solid stuff, and if you have MindManager, there's no reason not to get it.
But if you don't have MindManager, well, there's still no reason to hold back - go and pick up the MindManager Viewer from MindJet's site. That is also free.


Knowledge mapping for communities

Here's an interesting slideshow in which authors Simon Buckingham Shum and Alexandra Okada make a case for a move away from text towards knowledge or mind mapping presentation in a knowledge community. Their objective is to change cognition, no less.

Visual mapping and recession-proofing your job

It looks like businesses are in for a tough time in 2008 and beyond. If your employer downsizes, how can you take steps to make sure you're one of the survivors?
