Mindjet OPML

in Random Bytes

Mindjet_logoMindjet: “We just added a new sample to the Mindjet Labs which adds OPML Editing to MindManager Pro 6”

Opml-shoutsu-wheet! This is great news. I can’t wait to check it out. In the environment I work in, I often have to make a choice between document readability and document portability. This is just fancy-speak for having to choose between a document format like Word or Acrobat over something more open like XML. Until now, Mindjet – despite being a seriously kick-ass application – didn’t give me this level of flexibility.

Mindjet is a Windows outliner/mind-mapper that makes it a breeze to brainstorm concepts and turn them into serious documents. I use it quite extensively to draft various reports, position papers and business planning documents.

I can’t wait to install the extension and take it for a ride. I’ll report back when I’ve had a chance to play with it for a bit.

Even cooler is that this same plugin also reads and writes Microsoft’s Simple Sharing Extensions for RSS. Awesome. Mindjet is definitely listening to their customers.

Way to go Mindjet!
