I will be speaking about Mindmapping for better programs at the CFUNITED/Express event in New York on 3/8/07. http://www.cfunitedexpress.com/ Mindmapping is a way to visually work with ideas that was invented in 1970 by Tony Buzan. Now used by millions of people worldwide, mindmapping uses both the left (logical) and right (visual) sides of the brain - so that we can more than double our productivity! I will show how to create effective mindmaps for requirements gathering, program architecture, project management and more. I will demo some
mindmapping tools and given an interactive mindmapping exercise for attendees too.

Have you seen the 3D mindmapping software Topicscape? Flat mindmaps are great for managing small projects or at the start of large ones, because they can show you a lot at one time. But when the mindmap starts to get big it becomes unwieldy or even breaks the software's limits. The 3D landscape gives a much broader overview. It also lets you store all the information related to the project in one place, organized in the same way as you organized the project plan. There's an example of real-life use at http://www.topicscape.com/user-story/project-manag...
