Get Everything Done

I would like to draw attention to an app I have recently discovered. Perhaps it's old news.

It's called Mindmup (sic), and it runs in a tab of Google's Chrome browser. Versions are also available for iOS and Android, though I haven't tried them. Your information is stored on the Google drive, but the software can run without internet access, resynchronising when a connection becomes available. There are options for more than one person to use it collaboratively. It's free.

It provides a very intuitive way of producing a mindmap, with shortcuts that make it rarely necessary to take one's hands off the keyboard. Subtrees can be folded (collapsed) and expanded by pressing F.

It has a few embellishments, one of which is directed at making an outline for a presentation. Pressing S splits the screen to show a storyboard; pressing + adds items from the mindmap to the storyboard, and - removes them.

I use the program make a hierarchical to do list. I then move a handful of nodes to the story board and make those items my focus for the next day or so. I find it simple and rather effective.

Thank you!! I'm new to AF and I've got a lot of ideas flying around in my head. As much as I appreciate the simplicity of a linear list, right now I think a mind map would be more helpful in keeping some of my ideas in context until I can organize them better.
