I have a small business of my own too and I'm always interested in everything that can help me and my small team to collaborate. Thanks for the link to Comapping, I'll check it out. The tool I use for collaboration is Wrike.com http://www.wrike.com/. It's a project management tool, but you can actually run your whole business there, you can keep your tasks for your HR manager or for your personal assistant there. Your whole company gets involved into this collaboration system and you have a clear picture what needs to be done and which tasks have been completed already. Wrike's connected with your inbox, so you can create a task via email. The tool also keeps you informed about your projects' progress. You always get notified, if somebody has completed a task. I just thought you might want to have a look at it. Hi!

Gliffy is really a diagrammer but does nice mind maps - so does flowchart.com. I have to say that as a mindmapper for more years than I care to mention, the Comapping approach feels to me more like graphical-based outlining than mind mapping. I treasure the freedom of mind maps, at least when they're not too big. And the bold-and-centre main topic keeps me and my collaborators focused. I've used mindmaps in meetings for a long time, and never had any trouble with participants understanding them. Collaborating on-line is a little different, of course, but I'm not convinced by the left-to-right argument. OK, you are, I know!
