Mind Mapping

Exploring two interesting tools for mind mapping: Freemind and CmapTools. Using them for brainstorming, to do list making/managing, and getting familiar with the software for eventual/potential process flow type charts. I ran into a thing with Freemind where I can't make a child node connect to two parent nodes (so that in a to do list, it would be dependent on two things getting done before proceeding). I'm having trouble printing with Freemind as well. Just getting started with Cmap.

The makers of CmapTools has interesting research going on, although I'm less and less a transhumanist. People's sense of technology seems dominated by metal and circuits. For human improvement and advancement, I favor more dietary, preventative type "biochemical extropianism" is the way to go while cryonics/cybernetics/MEMS sounds like a big messy hassle. I advocate going vegan and living right - not down with the immortality focus (feels like decision dodging). I can get behind properly studied nootropics. My thoughts are colored by having just read the ubermensch wikipedia page.
