Although there is a spike in Google Trends for Best Mind Mapping Software, I haven’t seen the programs’ actual application on the internet — that is just my observation. It does not imply that mind mapping software is not in demand. It’s just that some companies and individuals are still oblivious to their use. Instead, people rely on directly jumping on to plan to initiate, executing and deployment without giving the “brainstorming” element any thought.
Mind mapping makes brainstorming easier. It is like having your own “world’, a workspace where there are no constraints. All you have to do is visualize stuff, scribble down ideas, create flowcharts and do whatever it is necessary to set the cart in gear. Besides, mind maps are cool. You can understand the project’s underlying strategy long before it has even started.
