In reply to Luis Rosenthal. Hi Luis! Glad your found this post. Mindmapping rocks. Do you use Mindmanager? I also wish we had bumped into each other while I was teaching at the LSE, especially because I was dying to do some work with the Ludic Group! Maybe someday. We do have a lot of shared interests around Design Thinking, Innovation, etc. :) Please keep in touch.

This is great – thanks for sharing the tools. I like this mindmap which I check from time to time when I find a need for a potential app. This guy usually has is covered already.

Nice blog by the way – funny to find we have so much in common. Looking at your CV, I wonder why I wasn’t lucky to meet you while you were at the LSE…

Really useful, thank you. Upped my confidence my dissertation might get written without the teeth-pulling…

One disadvantage with Textmate is it doesn’t seem to be being updated. An alternative is BBEdit or the free TextWrangler.

Another app in the Data Storage field, which I think is potentially even better than Evernote or DevonThink (primarily because it is simpler than both of them) is Yojimbo.
All three are by BareBones Software (no commission involved, unfortunately)
