Mind Mapping

Years ago, Tony Buzan took the time to study the notes of notable minds (DaVinci for example), and came up with a system of note-taking that is highly effective. It's called mind mapping, and is a very simple concept that mirrors the connection building process of your brain.

Watch this youtube clip on Tony Buzan explaining and illustrating mind mapping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlabrWv25qQ

I use comapping.com as a virtual mind mapping tool that is also very useful for collaboration, but many people use freemind (http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page).

Try mind mapping out and let me know what you think.
