Personalbrain is a concept map application more than it is a mind map. Any node in the graph can have multiple parents as well as related nodes that are not child nodes. For such graphs (mind maps are trees) if can be difficult to view, but Personalbrain 5 offers a number of views into the graph.

I took a look at InfoRapid site. I looks nice, however let people know that 1. 2008 edition is not free but has 14 day trial and 2. Yes, there is a free version its the 2005 edition. Click on downloads and at bottom of screen you will find link to 2005.

PersonalBrain can run from a usb stick too. I’m using it at a new job to track the relationships between people, projects, information, etc. It’s very helpful, though I’m sure I’m using it to only about 25% of its potential.

The lines in PersonalBrain are to strate imho. I use mindmanager for now but know I see Mindvisualizer, it looks a lot more natural so I will try out the trial.

I have tried a lot of mapping software both free and paid for. I finally found one that has all of what I need. Mindvisualizer! It even comes in a protable version that I keep on my USB drive.

Thanks for the link and glad you liked it.

PersonalBrain is one of those apps that are good and time-proven but not really mainstream.
