Only a few days ago I joined MindMeister, a web-based mindmapping and productivity tool as Marketing Manager. I was always a heavy mindmapper occasionally taking a hiatus to go with other note-takers but always returning to mindmaps as a formidable helper for getting things organized and making it visible/presentable to me an others. Eventually after my desktop app NovaMind crashed continuously on launch I decided to dare a straight step in to web-based mindmapping. Back then – after carefully evaluating 3 or 4 products – I decided to go with MindMeister – see this post from May 2007. Since I also wanted to convert my fellow co-workers and partners I needed a service I can trust. MindMeister’s pricing plan (put aside the user experience and feature set and the discount ;-) and service convinced me finally. So we became the third firm that signed up.

Funny thing after becoming kind of an evangelist we started talking about a possible collaboration just as I returned from my gig with Playyoo only to agree to enter a formal relationship with Aug 1. I’m very happy to be part of a very ambitious international time that’s dedicated to make the world a better place. And to push the notion of software as a service while providing a paramount user experience center stage.

As an entry gift we do offer you an free premium account for 6 months. In order to get it please register with http://mindmeister.com and then forward me your username. I’ll take care of the rest. So come forward and become a MindMeister.

By coincident it happend that I was interviewed the very first day with Mindmeister. Not about mindmaps but about the web and social phenomenons part. about Microsofts’s findings on the subject of the six degrees of separation and marketing issues in general.

Burg http://randgaenge.net/2007/12/16/playyoo-fanatic/ Awesome, Samir just uploaded his 4th game to Playoo. It seems as if he is eager to win the contest cash prizes.

Samir is from India. It only fits that there was a panel at Stanford titled: “Indian Wireless Market – Why Mobile? Why India?, Why Now?”

Burg http://randgaenge.net/2007/11/27/walking-downtown/ 27112007058since Nov 5. I’m quite enjoying the new environment. Still not settled ‘though. There is not much I can tell except that

- the weather is incredible nice here
- there is almost no way to avoid pasta or pizza
- there are lots of banks around
- the city is rather quiet at night
- still there are some good places to hang out (in the evening)
- occasionally you get horse meat
- Merlot del Ticino is the local version of red wine
- we are all very busy here
- I access the internet via Sunrise HSDPA
- I don’t like Mario Botta ( ), the (in)famous local architect.

Still no way to aggregate the posts from Playyoo here. The problem is Pebble the software we are using at the moment. Only Yahhoo Pipes can help but then no time for that yet.

Is there something like an RSS-to-WP plugin out there? Don’t ask me what kind of software we are using right now ;-)
