Dari WIKIPEDIA,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map
“A mind map or mind-map is a pictorial representation of how a central concept is linked to other concepts and issues. It is similar to a semantic network or cognitive map but there are no formal restrictions on the kinds of links used. Most often the map involves color or monochrome images, words, and lines. The elements are arranged intuitively according to the importance of the concepts and they are organized into groupings, branches, or area.”

“FreeMind is a premier free mind-mapping (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map) software written in Java. The recent development has hopefully turned it into high productivity tool. We are proud that the operation and navigation of FreeMind is faster than that of MindManager because of one-click “fold / unfold” and “follow link” operations.”
