Warner Crocker is sitting in as a Judge on a MindMap Contest currently being run by NoteTalkers. If you haven't had a chance to use MindManager (free trial) then this is a perfect opportunity.
NoteTalkers is giving you an opportunity to win up to $1,100 USD (not Aussie Monopoly money) of value in prizes [updated on 6 April 2006, i.e you win prizes valued at $1,100 not that amount of money.] just by submitting some simple MindMaps; if you ask me there is no better incentive to learn a new application than some cash!
Here's what NoteTalker said:
We’re inviting readers to design and submit up to three MindManager map entries (one per category per person, please) by email to contest@notetalkers.com…
- A MindManager map* about “Note Taking”
- A MindManager map* that describes “What’s on your Mind?”
- A Screencast** demonstrating MindManager
One interesting point to note is that entry into these competitions are usually a little on the low side, so the chances of winning are a little on the high side :-)
