Cool Tool ....


Thanks to Lifehacker I discovered today a new and efficient way to utilize the Wikipedia to research a topic and expand my thoughts will allowing a quick way to get down to particulars .... for long time followers you know that I thrive on the mindmapping metaphor, so this was a no brainer to try ... what I discovered was an extremely efficient web based way to research a topic ... you simply go to WikiMindMap and type in your language and the topic and voila ... see the screen shot of biofuel as a topic ... notice the green arrows ... hit one of those and you instantly drill down to the next level with all sorts of topics radiating out ... click on a topic with an arrow and it brings out the reference in another screen ... man talk about quick ... great great tool for all sorts of applications ...
