Mind Mapping and Collaboration
Alexander Tyagulsky, marketing manager at CS Odessa, is looking for some input into the question, “what type of collaboration is really necessary for desktop mind mapping software?” CS Odessa is the company behind ConceptDraw MINDMAP. I presume they are looking for real-world feedback to help them focus the feature-set of the ConceptDraw MINDMAP.
Alex has posted four ideas that he sees as collaborative features for desktop mind mapping.
1. Ability to share the map with other people in read-only mode. They can access the document even if you are editing it at that time, and they can see changes as soon as you make them.
2. Real time team brainstorming. The mechanism is simple: all brainstorming session participants can add new ideas which are immediately shown to all but the session holder is the only person who can edit the map.
3. Ability to put your map into a blog, wiki or html page via interactive representation. The realization of this feature supposedly will be done by means of interactive export.
4. And the hottest thing, simultaneous editing of a single multi page map. You can edit any map page but only if nobody is working on it at this moment. Of course, you see all changes made by other users on their pages in real time. So there are many people who work with the same document but not more than one user editing one page.
If you have any thoughts on the subject, add them to the comments on this post: Mind Mapping and Collaboration : ConceptDraw Lab.
