Buzan Online is excited to release Version 3 of iMindMap™ in mid-August 2008. The new version of the
only Mind Mapping software endorsed by Tony Buzan will be available in three Editions: Elements, Professional,
and Ultimate.
The new Editions of iMindMap™ are designed to take different Mind Mapping needs into consideration.
For Mind Mappers who want a basic and economical program that allows them to simply Mind Map to organise
ideas, the Elements Edition is ideal.
iMindMap™’s Professional Edition is created for businesses and organisations who want a creative
space to think and to put their Mind Maps on display. As well as including all the features of iMindMap™
Elements, the Professional edition has an assortment of new features that will allow Mind Mappers to use
their Mind Maps for crisp and impressive presentations.
The Ultimate edition of iMindMap™ truly is the ultimate Mind Mapping experience. The most impressive
feature of iMindMap™ Ultimate is its fully integrated project management system – where the user can
Mind Map creatively to scope projects then add tasks, dates, milestones, durations, etc. which can be
viewed in Gantt charts within iMindMap™ as well as exporting them to Microsoft Project and Excel. This
tool is ideal for business proposals, brainstorming, scheduling, development and event planning.
All three new Editions of iMindMap™ will deliver a whole new Mind Mapping experience. The look and
feel of the program has been improved with a new, more user-friendly and intuitive interface with more
white space, shortcut keys and less visual clutter. The functionality of the software is improved with
reduced memory requirement by up to 300%, and processing speeds of up to 400% faster. iMindMap™ Version
3 will also make Mind Maps even more customisable with AutoLayout and Style, multiline text, improved
highlight clouds, a new sketch tool, screen capture tool, improved printing tools and image library,
import tools, and branch sorting capabilities.
An exciting and unique feature to Version 3 is the e Learning Course Viewer, a series of Flash courses
that run within iMindMap™ that will inspire users to create life-enhancing Mind Maps. Based on the teachings
of Tony Buzan, these courses will intimately guide Mind Mappers through a series of tasks where they create
Mind Maps along the way. Not only will it perfect Mind Mapping skills, users will also learn new ways to
expand and improve thinking, learning, emotions and creativity. The Ultimate Edition of iMindMap™ will allow
users to create their own e Learning Courses using a simple API integrated in the iMindMap™ software.
As a special gift from Tony Buzan to thank all early adopters of iMindMap™, Buzan Online will upgrade
all current iMindMap™ users to the Ultimate Edition of Version 3 for free. Upgrades with download links and
instructions will be emailed to all users upon its release. This offer is available to anyone who has purchased
or will purchase iMindMap™ (Version 2.5 or lower) before the release of Version 3 in August. This is a big
saving of £90GBP ($180USD, €99EUR).
