What is a mind map and what are its uses and how does it benefit us. Tony Buzan, the originator of Mind Mapping, explains concept of mind-mapping in this small video of about 6 minutes. For the impatient, I am giving very 2 lines short introduction to mind maps:
Wikipedia introduces the definition as:
Mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure and classify ideas as an aid in study, organization, problem solving, decision making and writing.
