Mind maps are a great way of organizing your thoughts. To encourage the use of mind mapping,
Text 2 Mind Map has provided a free and simple mind mapping tool online since 2008.
How does it work?
The easiest way to learn Text2MindMap is to play with it. Write some text in the text area,
use the TAB key to indent text lines, and click the "Draw Mind Map"-button to see what happens.
Each text line in the text area will become a separate node in the mind map.
Indenting the text (using the TAB key) starts a new branch of nodes in the mind map.
Also, have a look at the Options to style your mind map.
