Re: .NET Concept Mapping Software?

I actually think I may like that one.  Interesting that it is better than
it's clones.  I only tried it's clones.  It also downloaded way faster than
the others, a good sign.

You use insert for new child node, enter for new sibling node, and you
emulate edges with nodes.  I like that.  The graphical links are a bit
strange because the diagram wants to go side-to-side.  But maybe that makes
for a better, or at least more efficient, layout in the end.  It is not bad,
thanks.
