Another useful web based tool: Knowledge Genes

Knowledge Genes looks like another great knowledge management and communication tool. You can have a free trial for 30 days, then it costs $3 USD a month

Great free tool for online mindmapping

I use a variety of mind mapping tools. I use MindNode Pro on my MacBook and MindJet Mind Manager 8 on my PC. On both machines I use FreeMind and, for me, that free tool is the best of them all. What I have missed is the opportunity to do collaborative mind mapping with a clean and simple interface. X-Mind is available for Mac, PC and Linux and has free and paid ($49 USD p.a) versions.

There's also a good review of mind mapping tools and apps here
