I find mindmapping good for organizing thoughts and planning, but I find listing and group brainstorming are more effective tools for generating ideas.

I think you make some very good points. I do agree that with digital mind maps, recall for other participants may not be impacted as much. However, there are some advantages to relaying information in a more visual fashion. And I also agree from experience that using mind maps does not work for all situations. I'll definitely check out your eBook. Andreas,

I’ll definitely check out your eBook.

The old story about the left and the right brain doesn't work with the computer, so digital maps are only very good structured drawings. There is less additional advantage for remembering the content. Mind Mapping is a thinking and writing technique. It was invented for personal use, so it is harder to use it with other participants. So my keynote is: give never a Mind Map to people they never have seen this before, otherwise you have to explain it. Mind Map is great, but you should not use it every time, especially when you work with bigger groups or people they are not used to it. <a href="http://www.kmu-forum.net/news/kmu/earticle.php/?bGFuZz1EZXV0c2NoJmlkPTY0MTM=" rel="nofollow">Read my eBook:</a> 'Vernetztes Denken mit Mind Mapping' Best regards from Austria Andreas Lercher, M.Ed.
