Libre (wiki) I see regular inquiries on Twitter and in forums from people looking for free software to support visual thinking. To provide answers, InformationTamers have put together 14 pages to help you find the one for your needs. These show the platform, a screen thumbnail and a link for more information in each case.
We built this article using the most complete source for details of information mapping software on the Web: Mind-mapping.org. Hat tip to Vic Gee who put Mind-mapping.org together and kept it up to date for years. [I took over that site in August 2013 - Roy Grubb] Mind-mapping.org has a good capability for selecting software by map type and operating system (click on the 'Refine software list' tab at the top right of its web page). "Free" here is as in beer, not in freedom, though some of the software listed is open source, so is free in both senses. Of course a pencil and paper is always almost free. Click through for more details: FreeMind. FreeMind n’est pas un éditeur de texte à proprement parler, et n’est pas forcément adapté pour gérer des textes très longs et "monoblocs" comme un article, un mémoire ou un rapport. Ce n’est donc pas un équivalent ou un concurrent de Microsoft Word ou Open Office Writer par exemple.
Cependant, même si nous n’irions pas jusqu’à parler de la mort du traitement de texte classique, ce logiciel, à l’instar de Keynote, témoigne d’une nouvelle manière d’aborder l’écriture de documents électroniques. Plus que le contenu, qui reste tout de même le plus important, c’est la mise en forme des textes qui est ici totalement repensée, afin de mettre en exergue une hiérarchie, un plan, ou tout simplement pour obtenir une visualisation plus intuitive et plus complexe que le simple système de titres et sous-titres des traitements de textes.
La prise en main du logiciel n’est pas des plus évidentes. Passées les premières hésitations (mais qu’est-ce qu’il faut que je fasse ???!)

To get the most of our Compendium's powerful hypertext features for idea and information management, we strongly recommend that you step through the tutorial and associated hands-on exercises, which will introduce the core knowledge you need to get going quickly, grounded in numerous concrete examples: You can view a set of brief Instructional Videos which introduce newcomers to the basics of mapping in Compendium, and illustrate some of the new features which add power and flexibility to Compendium mapping and web exports.
You need the Macromedia Flash Player/browser plug-in to view these clips (many browsers have this as standard). Instructional Videos Issue Mapping is the process of using Compendium to make critical thinking visible; it is a visual display that integrates ideas, issues, points of view, arguments, evidence and documents in especially complex and 'wicked' problems. Dialogue Mapping adds the component of facilitation to Issue Mapping. 30+ Mind Mapping Tools.
