Resource of the Week: FreeMind This week's resource is an open source software application for creating Mind Maps. A great resource for A level Psychology exam revision. Because FreeMind is open source it is completely free; it is free to download and use with no restrictions and you are even free to modify the source code and make it better if you are a programmer.

FreeMind is really easy to use and produces beautiful mindmaps. The mindmaps are foldable, so you can focus on the branches you are working on at the time and you can format each branch exactly as you want it. Mindmap branches can be coloured, displayed as bubbles or forks and you can even include symbols.

So no more messy handwritten mindmaps that are too complicated to be any use. Did I mention that it is completely free? Why pay nearly £60 for Tony Buzan's iMindMap or between £50 and £200 for MindManager when you can get FreeMind for free. Get it here, there are installers for Linux, Mac and Windows.

    Although Freemind is great, I now use X-Mind. It is more versatile and lets you convert mindmaps to tables and other types of diagram.
