Comment by Graham Gunderson on June 12, 2012 at 12:45pm Great work Mike Taylor! Thanks for the presentation of this powerful tool. In my professional life I have to brainstorm, and when it seems like more "storm" than "brains" it's clear that mind mapping is the way to capture what's valuable, present it clearly, and preserve it in a library. I bet every absent minded professor could use the presence of mind mapping!
Comment by Belinda Jokinen on June 12, 2012 at 10:45am This was possibly my favorite topic for any LaunchPad event so far (right up there with the Mobius Science event). I really enjoyed the concepts explored by Mr. Taylor and look forward to more of his work!
