The reason I like MindNode, in particular, is because it has both power and simplicity. I talked about this at length on the Mac Power Users episode a few years ago about cooking ideas. Using mind mapping, I’m able to long-term plan big projects in a way that is more efficient, and frankly better, than any method I’ve ever used before. MindNode is the application where I finally “got it” concerning mind mapping. This is a great update to an already useful application. This week MindNode version 5 released ( App Store). I use MindNode nearly every day, so the $20 per year price tag is an easy decision for me. When I first got into mind mapping, the software was hundreds of dollars and couldn’t hold a candle to MindNode. ($2.49/month or $19.99/year) Even though they’ve made this move, they are making the new update with visual tags a free upgrade to existing MindNode 5 and 6 customers. MindNode has also shifted the business model to a subscription pricing plan to help support future development. The app also still has that clean design that I love and the ability to jump between mind maps and outlines in the application. The tags work on both iOS and Mac platforms and they are an excellent addition. I’ve been using them to represent progress as I work through the Keyboard Maestro Field Guide update nodes. It gives you one more visual tool for mind mapping, and their uses go as far as your imagination. The new version adds visual tags to your maps with colored dots you can drop in at the end of nodes. MindNode, my favorite mind mapping app, recently released version 7. MindNode has always understood that, and this update is right in line with that purpose. I want to create and connect nodes with zero friction. It’s a time when the very last thing I need is the software to get fiddly with me. The reason I use MindNode is that because the work I do in the app is inherently creative. Finally, MindNode also has scribble support so you can add titles and connections with your Apple Pencil. They’ve also added a context menu for notes, connections, and images. This all dramatically speeds up the process. You can Shift + Drag to connect nodes and Option + Click to create new nodes. The new version also supports the magic keyboard with some innovative features like pointer gestures. The good news is that the MindNode will also be coming to Big Sur. I primarily use MindNode on my iPad, and looking at this new widget, I really wish Apple would open the iPad Home Screen up for more widgets. The new update adds widgets to give you quick access to your maps from your Home Screen. ![]() MindNode, my mind mapping app of choice, got a nice update for iOS 14. Both cover all the Apple platform devices and make it really easy to jump between devices and resume. My weapons of choice these days for both? MindNode for mind maps. If you can get started on a project this way early enough, it sometimes feels like the work does itself. This is the technique I’ve talked about in the past where you start to map or outline early, and come back to it every day or two with your subconscious mind doing the heavy lifting. Whether you are using mind maps or outlines, Cooking Ideas still works. You can just tell when the speaker has a beginning, middle, and an end, and those fit best as outlines. Another place I often use outlines is when attending what feels, to me at least, like a structured lecture. I’ll do the same thing outlining contracts or planning structured long-form blog posts. ![]() On the flip side, when I create a chronology for a client matter, a project that is, by nature, linear, I start with an outline. In that case, I start up a new mind map and add to it slowly. ![]() Other good examples of mind map tasks, for me, are where I’m learning something new or when I have to get my head wrapped around my own thoughts on a topic. Using the mind map also helped me determine to group courses by platform rather than topic. By using a mind map, I saw there were multiple organizational paths for that course. I didn’t have a clear path when I started that project, and I needed to just get ideas on the screen so I could start organizing. Specifically, where outlines are best for taking generally organized information and making it more organized, mind maps are all about taming chaos.įor instance, when I was making the initial attempt at organizing the Photos Field Guide, I used a MindNode-based mind map. For me, the distinction is all about chaos and order. Both tools are good at taking a bunch of inputs and letting you organize them later. I can see why those lines could be confused. I sometimes get asked about where I use outlining tools versus mind mapping tools. ![]() News compiled 30 vacation ideas to keep you close to home or jet you away to far-flung places.

These were divided among the different stages of engaging with our stakeholders. We brought our entire design team together in multiple workshops to find out how they worked and lay out an extensive list of our design activities. We needed to speak in a language that the business executives could value, not one that made us look fancy in our own heads.

We wanted to incorporate real user research into our process, which would have meant the same projects taking much more time to deliver. They were quite happy with this setting because we were generally shipping good designs, but we wanted to do better. The business saw design as a tool to deliver user interfaces and designs.

The Slacker Backer effort will offer many of the same backer rewards as the Kickstarter campaign, although oddly, according to the press release (via Polygon), the designs of the physical editions offered through this new campaign will be different from the Kickstarter versions, a potentially annoying and/or expensive situation for collectors. The latest in the string of Shenmue 3 controversy: Ys Net has revealed that Kickstarter backers will have to pay full price for pre-order content.

But I prefer the navigation summary report for reviewing flows in both directions. ![]() You can also use the Entrance Paths report for forward path analysis - this shows which content visitors prefer when arriving at a particular page. ![]() It highlights the most popular paths and the content that influences the decision - for example - how many who convert go to the "About Us" page? For many types of sites, reverse path analysis is really useful - you can see where people are flowing to your conversion pages such as the lead gen form or Add to Basket page. The Navigation Summary can be used for forward or reverse path analysis. This intuitive when you know, but not if you don't go beyond the top content trends. Google Analytics also has useful reports on customer journeys, but they are slightly hidden in that they are not in the main menu on the left as for some analytics systems, rather you have to chose a specific page. If your natural visitors are bouncing you either need to route them to another page (tricky) or provide a more relevant experience when they land. While many have become effective at pointing paid search traffic at the right landing page, natural search visitors often don't arrive on an appropriate page and this can be seen well in a report in Google Analytics using an Advanced Segmentation report showing paid and non-paid search traffic segmented by landing page. I think there are two issues here, first where visitors are routed to when they first come to the site and secondly, the journeys forward from the initial pages. For me journey analysis is a key activity. Likewise, improving calls-to-action and development of landing pages has a relatively good level of focus.īut, the chart shows that most think there are many other areas they need to give more attention to. The table shows that the use of KPIs is quite well understood today, with most marketers knowing their conversion rates from their bounce rates and AOV. I think this has led to the popularity of landing page optimisation through AB and multivariate testing. Site owners are naturally looking for where they can make the biggest improvements with the least effort in terms of resource and cost. |
