It's time for Creative fuZion over on Dorothy's site.I thought I would repost my entry on FREE MIND as it's a free valuable tool that I use for mind mapping and brain dumping when brainstorming series and issues around the church. I've found that I can't live without it.
Sometime in the fall of 2005 after I had jumped into the world of Mac I came across a free program called FREE MIND I didn't know what I was going to do with this program--but I came to learn that it would be useful for many applications.
I've used it for worship planning (for series and such--tucking away creative ideas that come to me in those short creative bursts). We've used it for planning a camp, for teaching ideas and I've even used it for sermon preparation (even taking my MAC...'gasp' on stage to use as my notes).
My fellow staff members tease me in using this so much--but it's quicker than writing notes down and I can rearrange the notes into like clusters or thoughts after the meeting. I've used it in conferences to take notes and for follow up.
If you are looking for an easy program to use (it's compatible with PC and MAC--in fact I have it on both) this is the program. Use it to dump out all of your ideas.
