Putting it on the map

I think that in mind maps are absolutely great, not only for brainstorming new ideas, but also for getting your thoughts down on paper quickly and easily, and then being able to see how a project is moving along and to make sure that all the various goals and deadlines are being met. However, during a mind map manually can take a lot of time, and so when I bought a Mind Map Software Package I really found that my work rate improved no end, since I can now produce a mind map in less than half the time that it took me before. I still think that my maps are absolutely great, but now I think that mind map software is great too.
