Beta Testers Wanted for MindManager Mac Edition

I have written about mind mapping in a few previous posts covering some of the basics. In some forthcoming posts I will mention different mind mapping applications and how to use mind maps as a clever and information-rich form of project management.

Arguably the most feature-rich and extensible mind mapping application available today is MindJet’s MindManager. One of the biggest complaints from Mac users, however, has been MindJet’s lack of a Mac edition of MindManager.

If you are a Mac user and are interested in mind mapping, take notice. MindJet is now developing a Mac edition of MindManager, and are looking for beta testers. You have to apply on their website, but this is a great opportunity to be involved in the development of this wonderful application on the Mac.

As I have personally considered whether I could switch from a PC to a Mac, one of the most significant barriers was the lack of a Mac version of MindManager. Now, this barrier will apparently come down soon! Another barrier for me is the Tablet PC platform itself, but the rumors are rampant about how we may see more from Apple on this in the not-too-distant future.
