Freemind is an incredible thought organization tool FROM THE AUTHORS: FreeMind is a premier free mind-mapping software written in Java. The recent development has hopefully turned it into high productivity tool. We are proud that the operation and navigation of FreeMind is faster than that of Mind Manager because of one-click "fold / unfold" and "follow link" operations. So you want to write a completely new metaphysics? Why don't you use FreeMind? You have a tool at hand that remarkably resembles the tray slips of Robert Pirsig, described in his sequel to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance called Lila. Do you want to refactor your essays in a similar way you would refactor software? Or do you want to keep personal knowledge base, which is easy to manage? Why don't you try FreeMind? FROM THE PORTER (me): Freemind is usable for many different things. I'm using it to plan projects, document servers and systems, plan and do html presentations guides, record and mantain progress of tasks and many other things. WWW: http://freemind.sourceforge.net/
