Rapidly visualize information with Context Organizer for MindManager

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

Mark Durieux who teaches sociology and authored Social Enterprenuership for Dummies uses Context Organizer for Mindjet MindManager. 
 
This is what Mark wrote about Context Organizer for MindManager:
 
“I thought you’d like to see something of how I’m using Context Organizer. In the first case (http://www.ourstory.com/thread.html?t=363005#448785), I used Context Organizer to help sift through an enormous amount of information regarding the recent cartoon racism controversy which, for many, linked President Barack Obama to the shooting of a chimpanzee in Connecticut. This was all over the internet for at least a couple of days and I had collected more than 40 single-spaced pages of excerpts and links.
 
In another case, I looked at the incident of the 3 year old boy who rode the NYC subway all by himself after leaving his mother at a McDonald’s (http://www.ourstory.com/thread.html?t=362728#448291).
 
Again, this was all over the internet and I’d collected many pages of excerpts and links. At any rate,  the point is that I have developed a workflow that lets me identify major ideas and themes in those huge compilations and then, around those themes and thanks to Context Organizer, quickly identify key sentences saturated with key words. From there , it is only a matter of minutes and some rearranging until I’m able to turn the meaningful and "rich" condensed information into a useful summary. Thanks a million for this terrific piece of software!”

User experience with Context Organizer for MindManager

Friday, February 27th, 2009
 

Gijs van Beeck Calkoen from Stoutmoedigdenken.org uses Context Organizer with Mindjet MindManager. Gijs runs the Practice for Bold Thinking to help companies and governments to solve stubborn problems such as search for new concepts and products, and focus their organization on innovation.
 
Gijs recently started to use Context Organizer for MindManager and dropped me this note:
 
It is a wonderful program to work with MindManager 8. Today I had an amazing experience. I used it to set up  a presentation about "Making innovation work in organisations" . I mindmapped some keywords; I used in Mindmanager 8 the Google/Yahoo linker, got the top 10 websites, inserted into Context Organizer, got from the summaries new ideas and aspects to consider and also new keywords for further search. In 1 1/2 hrs I got an broad overview on the subject, …and some home reading work for weeks….but by using Context Organizer it should be much, much less.

Christmas in January with Context Organizer

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009
  
Kyle McFarlin from The Underlying Blog provides a quick review of how Context Organizer automatically generates MindManager maps and turns users into champion speed readers.
 
Here is Kyle’s review of Context Organizer: Christmas in January with Context Organizer.
“with Context Organizer you are able to quickly get the context of attached documents as well as web sites right within MindManager 8, that are visually displayed as topics and subtopics.”
 
In fact, I think the output from Context Organizer is very similar to what speed-reading programs are trying to get you to pick up on.
 
One aspect of Context Organizer is to make the document work for the user so to speak and provide instant information capsule so the user at a glance can decide if the document is of interest and value.
 
Context Organizer is ideal for executives, managers, administrators, researchers, web surfers, students, writers, journalists, policy makers – people needing to rapidly absorb large amount of information quickly and without being lost in unnecessary details

62 percent of professionals report sifting through irrelevant information

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

 

New Work and New Work Skills by Tony Karrer

1-Sentence Summary* 

A recently released Workplace Productivity Survey, reported by MSNBC, had the following findings: 62 percent of professionals report that they spend a lot of time sifting through irrelevant information to find what they need;    
             
68 percent wish they could spend less time organizing information and more time using the information that comes their way.
 
Indeed, the key in dealing with volumes of data is to be able to select smartly what in fact is relevant and useful versus fluff.
 
One of the technologies that helps with weeding out irrelevant information is automatic text summarization. Summarization is kind of speed-up reading  condensing web pages, emails and documents into keywords and summaries presented in context.
 
By pointing to the most important content, it allows the readers to make quick determinations if they want to read the full text.

Go on High-Information Diet

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

Go on High-Information Diet by Dustin Wax

1-Sentence Summary* 

The phrase “information overload” gets more than 1.5 million hits on Google. Listen: in order to be information, an input must make you better informed. We are a nation of people who constantly react to the various inputs in our lives in the absence of information.

The fact that Google brings a huge list of links to follow can be an advantage but only if you have some tools that will help to rapidly summarize the essential content. The key in dealing with volumes of data is to be able to select smartly what in fact is concrete and useful versus fluff.

One of the technologies that may help is automatic text summarization. It speed-up reading by condensing web pages, emails and documents into keywords and summaries presented in context. By pointing to the most important content, it allows the reader to make quick determinations if they want to read the full text.
