Comment on Mindmapping – why it works by Matt Fagala

I’m a big Mindmapping fan too. Been using it for a few years. Curio and Mindjet are my software packages of choice, for personal organization. Mindjet’s online web version and Mindmeister.com are also good online alternatives that offer easy collaboration.

Comment on The 5th anniversary of MemberNote by Morriss Partee

Gene, I knew you were well ahead of the game when I first learned about your MemberNote, but I didn’t realize you were five years (and counting) ahead of the curve. Huge congrats.

And here’s what I say about your drum analogy: The size of your drum has no bearing on the loudness of that drum and a large drum can even be a detriment to achieving good tone. The only thing that counts is playing the drum well… and that you are doing, big time, my friend.

I just gave you and MemberNote a shout on Jim Bruene’s blog. Yes, it’s tough to be first. But boy, does it sure feel good when the rest of the world comes around. And they are, slowly but surely.

I’ve also been a Tony Buzan fan. I try to use Omnigraffle to do MindMaps instead of taking notes, but sometimes it’s for a group, and they prefer something that’s just text. Hey, I wonder if someone could convince Evernote to add object graphic tools…

Did you look at other mind-mapping programs? If so, what sold you on Mindjet? [you can reply via email]

Thanks,

Steve

If you post the video and he sues you….then you’d be able to catch him, no?

Comment on The family tree by Dan Dickinson

My brothers and I are the seventh generation of Dickinsons in Canada, eleventh (I believe) in North America. We’re predominantly English, and despite being so deep-rooted in Canada, my brother lives in London and is now a British citizen. So you’re right about the circle completing itself!

Comment on Wash day by Tim McAlpine

Here’s a very random factoid that I know only due to me being a Porsche nut in my teens and 20s. Ferdinand Porsche designed the original Beetle as a contract designer for VW right around WWII. The round-shape design came from it being the only shape that they could dip in paint (a new technique at the time) and not leave runs. A unexpected by-product was the Beetle being the first aerodynamic vehicle ever produced.

I guess another unexpected by-product is that it’s way easier to wash! As Vince from the Shamwow infomercials says. “You know the Germans always make good stuff.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsQcyhBsSjI&

I know – very random!

Hope they catch him. That’d be a fantastic video. Maybe you should mask his face out in iMovie and upload….
