I have found Inspiration to be a productive mind mapping software. It enables you to create your map in either outline or diagram mode and conveniently switch between the two views. One feature that’s especially useful is the “RapidFire” tool that enables you to quickly connect related ideas while working in the diagram mode and immediately see the line-connected relations shown on the screen. There’s a 30-day free trial available for both Mac and Windows. While Inspiration costs about $80, it’s a great value. I’ve used several map mapping software packages. This one is really good. See Inspiration.com.

Oh, I disagree totally. Spellcheck/grammar indicate thinking processes.

I’ve no issue with xMind, neither on Mac (10.5.7), neither on Linux (Debian unstable).

It works flawlessly and it’s visually great !

Sure, IF it works on XMind! Couldn’t get it to even launch on OSX Leopard 10.5.7

Jeff – You are not alone facing the issue with XMind. I even thought it would be a nice alternative before I tried it but it turned out (even after reinstalling the app many times) that it fails to even launch with that weird Java error. I wonder if they put out such an app without even testing it.

Simon – have you ever tried iMindMap?

I wonder what your opinion would be…

To me, MindManager is the best mindmapping tool, even if it’s not free.

To be frankly speaking, spellcheck/grammar is not so important. The content is much important than others.

Hi,

You should have talked about xMind, a great free mindmapping app that works on OS X !

As a writer, we know that spelling and grammar are just as important as making the actual point. I highly advise spellcheck/grammar check before posting.
