Contextualizing now integrated with Comapping

Monday, February 15th, 2010

 

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.

 

 * This mind map was produced using Comapping online collaborative mapping software with Context Organizer Analyze auto-mapping add-on.

Comapping and Context Organizer

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

 

In the past few months the Context Discovery team worked on providing Web server version of Context Organizer.
We partnered with Comapping to offer the ability to automatically generate mind maps from web pages and documents. The idea is the same as in our desktop version of Context Organizer for MindManager from Mindjet. Once a hyperlink or a document is attached to a Topic then Context Organizer automatically generates the mind map with the summaries.
In case of Comapping, the mind map is generated with the help of the Context Organizer cloud server and instantly displayed in Comapping. The operation is fast and transparent.
How this is done?
1.       Add a hyperlink to your map Topic
2.       Place the mouse cursor over the Topic
3.       The Analyze icon automatically pops up:
4.       Click on the Analyze icon to automatically generate the mind map:
 
 
Voila!   This is how simple it is to use Comapping with Context Organizer!  
Benefits
  *  Automatic map generation – save time on drawing maps; gain time on shaping the maps and making your points
  *  Auto-discovery – Summaries lead the mind to focus on the essential content
  *  Text mining – reducing complex information to indispensable facts.
Now Comapping with Context Organizer offer an exciting, dynamic web application with auto-discovery and auto-mapping power features that make mind mapping fast, easy and effective.

Mind mapping as a tool to frame a problem

Friday, October 10th, 2008

 Information Overload Is a Filter Problem by Stephen E. Arnold

"The final issue I have is that I don’t have an answer to this question: “When I don’t know what I need to answer my question, what do I filter in and out?”
 
Indeed, this is a critical question that kick starts the thinking process. A good starting point is to map out the problem and identify as many attributes and components of the question.
 
Mind mapping facilitates identification and organization of complex ideas into clearly defined concepts and ideas. Using mind mapping tools helps immensely to portray the problem by using keywords, short phrases, and pictures which all are interconnected.
 
The strength of this approach is its simplicity. Through associative thinking, brainstorming, any problem will reveal links with relevant concepts and relationships. In fact, visually mapping a problem serves as an effective filter to frame the issues and validate understanding of the problem. Once this is done it is much easier to search for answers.
