Mind Manager
ABSTRACT
Mind Manager is a commercial Mind Mapping Software application developed by
Mindjet Corporation. Mind Maps are created in Mind Manager are based on mind map-
ping methods by Tony Buzan, author, student consultant and proponent of the techniques
of mind mapping and mental literacy. A mind map is a diagram used to represent words,
ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea.
Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid in
study, organization, problem solving, decision making, and writing.
Mind Mapping process starts from the center with the main idea and branch out
as directed by the individual ideas and general form of the theme. The idea is that if
the brain is related to information most e±ciently, the information must be structured
in such a way as to slot in easily as possible. Mind maps may also aid recall of existing
memory.
Mind mapping software enables you to arrange information in expandable and
collapsible topic trees. This makes it possible to store much more information in a
software-produced visual map, without overwhelming you. Because of this, you can use
it to create sophisticated knowledge models that wouldn't be possible on paper.
