Thing #14

I really enjoyed gliffy and bubbl.us. They were both so simple to use and I'm looking forward to using them for the right project during my tenure in the MAT program. The difference between a flow chart and a mind map is that a flow chart goes from one step to another and a mind map is simple a main idea that is expanded into different bubbles. I remember drawing out mind maps in school when brainstorming. That was actually my favorite form of brainstorming. Like Google Drive, I like you can save them on the website and access them from any computer. That seems to be the running theme with all this Web 2.0--everything is more readily accessible since you can simply log onto a website and find all your work right there without having to worry about keeping up with a thumb drive or being at your computer where everything is saved on a hard drive.
