Transform the way you take notes with Mind Maps. MindJet has created an incredible Mind Mapping tool that is extremely powerful in making use of technology. Add the power of a Tablet PC and you have a very rich tool for increasing your productivity. Why are Mind Maps so cool--they work the way your mind does (non-linear and a union between logical and creative).

This is a great tool for eliciting project requirements from a team during a brainstorming session. Add to that the add-in that creates work items in Visual Studio Team System and you have a "dynamic duo."

To me, mind mapping is the ultimate way to keep track of any number of things. I use it to plan articles that I'm writing, plan trips, and to keep up with an overview of all projects I'm working on. It is also a great tool for brainstorming and decision making. (via Mindjet)
