Many people have spent their youth learning to study with the aid of mind maps. And now, as with so many things on the Net, mind mapping has gone collaborative.

MindMeister is a powerful tool that can be used for real-time collaboration to allow truly global brainstorming sessions. Users can create, manage and share mind maps online and access them anytime, from anywhere. In brainstorming mode, fellow MindMeisters from around the world (or just in different rooms) can simultaneously work on the same mind map and see each other’s changes as they happen.
