The Inimitable Comapping

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

 

Gene Bellinger uses Comapping – a mind mapping application - to manage numerous projects and collaborate with  geographically dispersed  teams.

Comapping recently added a feature that automatically creates mind maps from web pages and documents. The feature is called “Analyze”. Gene decided to give Analyze a spin. Here are his comments in his SystemWiki.org blog: 

While I have been continually amazed by Comapping they just added a new feature that is most amazing and for which I think experience is the only way to grasp the full utility of. The feature is called “Analyze”.

Imagine being able to attach a URL to a node in a mindmap and then telling the software to analyze the content of the node and build you an outline of the content based on an analysis of the relevance of the content.

Hard to grasp? I found it difficult to understand until I tinkered with it for a while. I’m still amazed! And you can attach a text, word or pdf document to a node and have it do the same analysis and build a content outline based on relevance directly into the mindmap.

If anybody is interested in learning how Analyze works with Comapping, here is more information about the Analyze feature in Comapping. And here is more information and examples of the auto-mapping capabilities.

Online Tone of Voice map by Catherine Franz

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
 
 
We all need to communicate and we use different media to do it. Here is a mind map that Catherine Franz thoughtfully adapted from the ABC Copywriting blog about the importance of  Online tone of voice for business.
 
I picked up the map on www.Biggerplate.com which offers galore of mind maps for sharing. Then I imported Catherine’s map to Comapping, added the hyperlink to the ABC Copywriting blog for reference.
 
And then I used the Context Organizer Analyze feature in Comapping  to automatically add the summary to Catherine’s original map. The map is interactive so you can play with it by clicking on the "+" and "-" indicators…

 

 

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

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.
