I recently got hooked on mind mapping while i read / or brainstorm about an idea.[ideas stick and i realize i understand things much better when i create a relational diagram of it to the whole] Have acess to mindgenius and freemind softwares but the graphics seem limiting and i want the ability to tart it up in illustrator/photoshop or indesign. i dont need the bells and whistle that ms project has[time management]. but want some ability to hyperlink to note files on my laptop or web.

Any suggested softwares? thx. T.
