However, be careful to discern whether such software is actually a content island. A content island is a silo, a black box and a black hole–a “Roach Motel for Verbiage” if you will. You author or store content therein but it’s never to be seen (reused, realized) again.

Well, until all of my colleagues become licensed users of this software, the folks at Mindjet Labs recently provided a useful bridge to the world of open source in the form of an integration for FreeMind. This integration allows a FreeMind user to import FreeMind maps into Mind Manager Pro 6. So now my colleagues can immediately install this Java application–on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.–to start producing mind maps, which can be freely consumed in Mind Manager. Kudos, Mindjet Labs!
