I guess the real "aha" moment is the creation of a knowledge map with a couple of clicks of the mouse.

Brian relates the "aha" moment to the fact that a web page or a document can be instantly converted into a mind map. The automatic map generation is driven by a powerful text mining product from Context Discovery.

Keywords and summaries are accurately extracted and the mind mapping software renders them into a map.

The automatic map generation frees the user from time-consuming map charting while providing more opportunity to focus on shaping and editing the visually mapped information.

Providing accurate and concise presentation of the original text’s most important points speeds up the mind mapping process.

Summarization is a powerful add-in to the knowledge worker’s toolbox.

On February 23^rd, 2010, Mindjet announced MindManager for SharePoint.  Michael Deutch writes on the Mindjet blog:

MindManager for SharePoint provides faster and easier ways to find, organize and update SharePoint tasks and information. With MindManager for SharePoint, you can create personalized interactive views (maps) of SharePoint data to save time accessing and updating your content within SharePoint.

Context Discovery Inc. is glad to announce that Context Organizer for MindManager supports SharePoint. The same capability of automatic generation of MindManager maps by Context Organizer is extended to SharePoint users.

Context Organizer for MindManager for SharePoint summarizes SharePoint documents and pages and instantly renders them as mind maps.

The primary challenge knowledge workers face is to make sense from reams of documents in SharePoint.  The automatic map generation frees the user from time consuming map charting while providing more opportunity to focus on shaping and editing the visually mapped information.

Using the build-in summarization, the MindManager and SharePoint users get to their key information faster, saving precious time and energy.

Context Organizer summarization is a powerful add-in to the knowledge worker’s toolbox. 

Context Organizer for MindManager with SharePoint is available in English, French, German and Spanish.

In his new book - Linchpin - Seth Godin asks:

Why are some people easily outsourced, downsized, or freelanced into obscurity, while others have their pick of opportunities?

To answer it Godin argues that it’s more essential than ever to become indispensable - to become a linchpin. Linchpins are the essential building blocks of great organizations: they invent, lead (regardless of title), connect others, make things happen, and create order out of chaos.

The attached mind map of Linchpin was originally authored by fordprefect in Mindjet MindManager Version 8 and published on Biggerplate.  I imported it to Comapping to be able to share it as an interactive mind map.

To navigate the map just click on the + or  - markers to expand or contract the map.

Hypershiter, visual mapper and a blogger Wallace Tait writes about adding context to mind mapping. The point in case is the recent integration of Context Organizer with Comapping. Wallace writes:

The point of extracting context from Web Pages and documents is quite simple; we are overloaded with data, information and knowledge and we need to get to the point of the barrage of data that attacks us daily.

For the academic, the use of Comapping with Contextual Organizer will be invaluable, as the cloud gives you the ideal medium for creating, managing and sharing information and knowledge with your colleagues and students within a protected cloud space.

For the business user Comapping can become a very convenient information carrier and knowledge mapping tool; becoming a standard process and system tool for creating all relevant information associated with your business management system.

The addition of Contextual Organizer now gives you the ability to research Web Pages. With the insertion of a URL you’ll be offered an “Analyze” button and voila, the Contextual engine which uses the Amazon server extracts the contextual relevance for your research purposes.
