Thing #14: Go With The Flow

When exploring the options I was given for flowcharts and mind maps, I chose the two that made the most sense to me (as far as the ease of use with tools). These were flowchart.com and mindmeister.com. I don't have any upcoming projects that relate to this type of chart, so instead I made one of each for the standards I chose in our livetext projects, which was distinguishing between facts and opinions.

Here you see the flowchart:
What I liked about this tool was it was incredibly easy to figure out without any directions and was able to be completely customized if you chose not to use a template from their database.

Here you see the mind map:
I liked the design elements of this tool much better, however, I Felt that it would only be useful on the web. This is a downfall, because sometimes you want to print a flowchart/mindmap, and you lose some of the perks of the mindmap when it is printed, such as minimizing details.
