SpicyNodes is not a bad way to start a mind map quickly.
It's a worthwhile visualization tool online that can be used to some degree for mind mapping. It uses some interesting movement, it has a nice zoom in and out tool and it's interactive capabilities are decent.
It’s a fun way to implement the mind mapping concept although it is a very different experience than doing it by hand with pencils and paper. Fortunately they offer a free version and they make it very easy to get started. You can click on one of these images to view their website which is done in large part with their own SpicyNodes system.
Whether you mind map online, with a good software, or with colored pencils and paper make sure you experience this creative thinking system for yourself. It's a powerful tool for many creative applications.
