All the more reason to start studying HTML5. Web apps is where it's at. - Scott Magdalein

Google Voice is an interesting reason, but not enough to really make a dent. I mean most people still have home phone numbers instead of just using their mobile. In a year or so this might be a good reason, but right now it won't have any significant effect besides more negative sentiment for AT&T. - Tony from iPhone

I love MindManager. Great App! - CW™

Glad to see mindmapping getting some "ink" again. Great stuff. - Steve Rubel

This is something I've wanted to learn more about, so I'm glad to have this video intro. - Mark Traphagen

Looks cool. I've used FreeMind, which is free, for a couple years now, but I like how this app is integrated with the Web. Nice stuff. - Craig Villamor

In this video is Michael Deutch and he's on FriendFeed here: https://friendfeed.com/michael... - Robert Scoble

I've been using NovaMind, haven't gotten in the habit of using religiously but when I do, it does really help to put thoughts down. Is definitely a good place to think before Powerpoint as Michael outlined. - Lou Paglia

I started using Mind Manager to layout Google AdWords PPC campaigns where I work, but very quickly saw many other uses for it. - Mark Traphagen

Curio's also neat, it has mind mapping (not as in-depth as MindManager) but a ton of other stuff too - even project tracking! Great for organizing creative projects. Mac only. http://www.zengobi.com/product... - invariant - farewell FF

he mentioned that software lays on top of mindmanager for project management. can we get some examples of the complimentary software? - Scott Magdalein

I've used XMind but it has some limitations.. doesn't print well, for example...I'd like to see MindJet used in realtime presentations.. Have any links?? - Patty Seybold

Craig - MindManager is integrated with the web in several ways - embedded web browser, web services, RSS feeds, and more. For instance, you can drag and drop a google doc right onto your map and then edit the content inside MindManager while viewing your map. This lets you flush out your thinking and then reference it while writing. Very powerful combination. - Michael Deutch

Patty, we have some recorded webinars on the Mindjet website where MindManager is used instead of PowerPoint. Check out the Jamie Nast webinar for instance: http://www.mindjet.com/about... - Michael Deutch

Scott - Mindjet integrates with our own Gantt product (http://twurl.nl/q7epy7), Microsoft Project, or a variety of others. You can see some of the other project related partner solutions here: http://twurl.nl/ypvyii - Michael Deutch

I LOVE this and have the perfect project to map this weekend. I have a focus issue and maybe I ought to use this software that has been sitting there feeling rejected for like 2 years, I think. I've attempted to use it about 3 times and freaked out and closed it. OK, I'm going to the video for help, wish me luck. Oh, I wonder if MindMaps can be published online? - Sheree Motiska

Sheree: they can be, through a variety of methods. - Robert Scoble

I got super amped on MM 2 years ago, used it every day for projects, then I kind of stopped. I found I did not return to the work that often and it would drift out. This is not a criticism, I just brainstorm on 3x5 cards faster now and then move to UI apps or whatever. But MM is definitely the best app. Even though we are in a web 2.x world, this workflow works best in desktop apps then pushed to web for collaboration. Hope I can slowly return to mapping in it again. - Mark

The Mac version is decent. - l0ckergn0me

Robert: Will you be posting a video from your visit to Friendfeed that you did today? - Amir from iPod

Nope, I didn't do a video. I want to do one soon, though. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

The Mac version of MindManager doesn't allow saving to existing files on mounted samba shares. That was a show-stopper for me. - Fred Yankowski

watching now - Holden Page

Odd. I have never heard your real voice before. haha - Holden Page

True, Holden. I try to use my fake voice. :) (You haven't heard the voice-overs on the twin videos?) - Louis Gray

.... nope. lol - Holden Page

why is LazyFeed invite only? - Damir Zubović

Damir, LazyFeed is invite only because I am not in charge. Ethan and Claire know I would like to open it up to everyone. - Louis Gray

Your password's too short :-P - Jesse Stay

the word "password" is too short? - Louis Gray

Louis, yes. - Jesse Stay

BTW, what screen capture software are you using? - Jesse Stay

I hand-coded my own screen capture software using a derivative of Objective C, mixed with .Net and AJAX, Jesse. - Louis Gray

Louis, I need an iPhone app then - will you build me one? - Jesse Stay

but seriously, what screen capture software did you use to make that? - Jesse Stay

Snapz Pro X: http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utiliti... - Louis Gray

Very nice - thank you sir. - Jesse Stay

More video demos == good, btw - Jesse Stay

Impressed that you hand-coded the capturing, I wouldn't know where to start - Joe Dawson from iPhone

We're honored to be your first guinea pig for the screencasting :) You should do this often. - Ethan Gahng

greta video - got straight to the point :) - Riaz Kanani

Hi Louis Thanks for the heads up about Lazyfeed. I have tried to register but it needs an invitation code. Can you or anyone in your network please let me know what I should put in? Thanks - Jane Finch

Very well done, I now have a better understanding of how it works. Anymore invites? Thanks - Mo Hall

why doesn't Lazyfeed have a feed for FF? - Thomas Power

Thomas, Lazyfeed's founders are just now getting to understand FriendFeed better. Maybe with time. - Louis Gray

cool thank you - Thomas Power

LazyFeed looks great.! Thanks for this video Louis, super interesting (I like your fast pace too). Would love an invite if you have 1. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

Hi, thanks everyone for your interest in Lazyfeed. We are excited to tell you that we will be releasing more invite codes via Twitter today. To receive your invite, please follow @lazyfeed on twitter and we will DM you an invite code. This invitation will expire midnight PST. Thank you! - Lazyfeed

I will have to check this out. I admit that the point of it was not immediately obvious the first few times I used it. - Bill Kinney

Louis, thanks for this wonderful quick tutorial. I am off to experimenting with Lazyfeed now. I wonder how you use it in conjunction with GReader, since I also find you sharing lot of stuff on GReader as well. - Mahendra (SkepticGeek)

Awesome demo, finally got a chance to watch it. - Bill Kinney

Love lazyfeed so far, but it won't connect with my Twitter acct even after I set up and click connect - only Flicr, etc..Anyone else have this issue. - Liza

Liza - I've just tried connecting your twitter to my lazyfeed and it seems to be successfully bringing tags like lazyweb, trip, techkaraoke, etc. Please try again. Thanks. - Ethan Gahng

miss you, green hornet,,,, - phofland

What a good idea. A conference on making a buck - Mark

Mark: how else do you get VCs to come? :-) - Robert Scoble

hehe its a good idea really - Mark

Great Video ,Guy is fantastic - Johni Fisher

"A blog is just a tool and if you think a blog is a community, than you too are a tool". Hahah...classic. - Mark Krynsky

Oh, true. :) - l0ckergn0me

just great -- "I don't want to be involved with anything to do with viral and community." nicely done Chris. - michael sean wright

LOL... "I fingered people." I actually spat out my Sprite at that - €€€€€€€€

Aye ;) - Tony

I've noticed that too. I'm really enjoying Evernote especially. - Amanda Sims

I recently switched from NetNewsWire to Google Reader.. It's nice to not worry about syncing. - Mark Robinson from Nambu

I Had been on a microsoft Office fast for the past 4 months, I only use online Apps like Evernote, and Google Docs, FluidApp has revolutionized all of that even More! I now Just have Google Docs on my desktop, along with GETDROPBOX.COM for my Online storage (2gigs free!) Seriously I am doing more and more ministry in "the cloud" - Ryan Smith

i use evernote to "scan" documents i need at work that are already in "paper" form. beats me running to the xerox machine and scanning them via email to my comp. plus i can email them straight from my phone. just emailed my boss the staff cellphone list today that he couldn't find but was sitting in my evernote app. - Tyler Gillies

I use google docs, friendfeed and evernote. Currently trying to figure out how to best use Tumblr. - michael mcminn

Justin, me too. I've started using gmail after outlook crashed on me one last time a couple weeks ago. My company is moving all our policies and procedures onto Google Docs. I'm considering moving from a desktop RSS reader to Google Reader, but haven't made the move yet. - Paul Steinbrueck

or stop using an "rss reader" and import your rss feeds into a private/semi private group. i haven't opened up google reader once since i started using friendfeed heavily. - Tyler Gillies

Yes. I love using all of those. I am enjoying Evernote more and more - John Snyder

Wow. This is a great discussion going on here... Tyler, how do you "scan" stuff via evernote? The only app that I can find that does OCR stuff is JotNot... But it seems buggy. - Justin Wise

A friend of mine mentioned that the new iPhone 3GS has a macro mode that really helps scanning documents up close into Evernote. I could be wrong, but I believe that's what he said. Have the 3G here. - Gabe Taviano

Have you tried Springpad? It looks very promising - http://www.springpadit.com/ and it's totally free. I'm also trying out Evernote. - Jannifer @wordsforliving

Tyler- with FF as an RSS reader, what do you do to "star" items to come back to later, or send (email) items to ppl who don't use FF? - Justin

Amazing, huh? - Steve Rubel from email

whens the iphone app coming out? - Tyler Gillies
