I just fired it up on Ubuntu Linux. It looks neat. Thank you for the heads up. gB

Dan,

I downloaded it and gave it a quick try. It’s not very intuitive and its pretty busy. It didn’t feel very good. Instinctively I saw some power there but I honestly was left asking the question, “How the hell am I going to use this thing?”

Having said that, I note this from the article you cited:

http://lifehacker.com/5196363/mindraider-organizes-and-visualizes-any-note-style

“Honestly? It’s an application that would take more than just a glance and quick twiddle with to get comfortable and productive in. That sounds like a deal-breaker to most idealistic productivity minds, of course, but it looks like MindRaider can be pretty powerful, once you get your system rolling with it.”

What I gave it was the equivalent of “a glance and a quick twiddle”. So maybe I missed the boat.
