Hi,

While searching for mind mapping tools that already had some integration
with orgmode, I found this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93cqGFu3B-g, which shows a simple (but
seemingly powerful) mindmapping tool that integrates well with org.

Unfortunately the link to the code / app is nowhere to be found in the
video description and the video is pretty old. It'd be unfortunate to not
share such an interesting project. I'm very interested in
using/testing/extending it. I'm wondering if the author still lurks around
this mailing list? *ping*

Either way, it's a great idea and someone else (even myself) could get some
inspiration out off it and create something similar (and share!) - I've
been wanting a way to visualize my org files in the form of a mindmap and
keep both representations synced so I could just switch when I wanted, and
this seems to be the gist of it.

Cheers,

-- Marcelo

There is a connection to Freemind in the source tree.  Not near my computer
right now.  The name is something like ox-freemind.el...

Hi Dave,

Yes, I'm aware of the freemind exporter. I'm not very fond of freemind
though, I find it clunky to use.

I really liked the minimalist style of the mind-mapping application shown
in the video (also the animation effects are cool, too). Would be great if
the author could chime in and perhaps share the code. Heck, I'd be willing
to buy it if the integration with org was good enough (both-ways auto
synchronization).

If you examine the video closely, it looks like it's a Mac application,
the author is David Griffiths and the application *might* be iMapMinder
(also available on Windows, but not on Linux - non-free both in the
freedom and beer sense). All of this is pure guesswork on my part
and might very well be completely wrong.

If David Griffiths is indeed the author, I don't remember seeing him on
the ML.  You'll have to find another way to contact him. The org file
shows an email address of

      dgriffiths AT fas.harvard.edu

but that might not be valid any longer (the video was posted in 2011).

Hi Nick,

Good catch, thanks. I'll try contacting him directly and will share my
findings here.

After some research, I could finally find the repository on github for this
project, so, for anyone who might also be interested, here it is:

https://github.com/dogriffiths/hipster

The email shown in the org buffer in the video did not exist, but searching
for the name of the app ("hiPster mindmapping"), surprinsigly brought back
the github repo.

Thank you David for making it open source!

Looks great, but when I copypaste I see Markdown not Org. Does Org work for you?

  -k.

No, it did not work for me. Maybe it's time to find a new maintainer for
it. I'd do it if I had the time. I think there's a lot of potential in this
app!

Hmm, It looks like David is still maintaining it in the new github repo.
The last commit, that, at the time of this posting, was made 29 days ago.
So maybe if we create an issue at github he'll take care of that (or fork
and make a PR).
