Another place for mind mapping software is the complete list at mind-mapping.org
This is an independent, non-commercial site (it won’t try to sell you anything) that lists ALL mind mapping, concept mapping and outlining software, including local executables and web-based. It has mind and concept mapping articles as well.

There are many web-based applications in the vein of Mind42 and Mindomo. These are the other ones I know of apart from those already mentioned: bubbl.us, bubble-mind.com, glinkr.net, kayuda.com,
mapul.com, mindmeister.com, webofweb.net

another tool which I found extremely useful for project management is http://www.comapping.com. Worth checking it out.

There is an information organizer for mindmappers that is geared specifically towards organizing project information. It works in a kind of 3D mindmap environment and allows you to see much more at one time than any 2D mindmapper.

So all the web research, notes and ideas can be gathered in the mindmap that follows the basic structure of the original planning mindmap you mention above. In fact, this information organizer (it’s called 3D Topicscape) can import FreeMind files directly and build a 3D mindmaps from them. It can even export back to FreeMind and do a complete round trip.

As the project progresses, this same framework can be used to store project management documents, design, costing and resources acquisition files and so on, so it becomes a hub around which the project’s information can revolve.

There’s an example of its use in this way at

You definitely should add GoalEnforcer to your list http://www.google.com/
It’s low cost, easy to use and project oriented (not like the other generic mind mapping software).
The cool thing is that it also allows me to export my plan to Excel and then import it back into GoalEnforcer.
