Drupal Graphmind

A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or

other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea.

Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and classify

ideas, and as an aid in study, organization, problem solving, decision making, and writing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map

Graphmind = mindmapping

= Freemind but also data from your PM system

Load Drupal data (nodes, users, files) Use views to Load data (custom arguments) Add external Drupal sites (to make accessible

data from all the sites)
