SIGIA-L: RE: Concept maps Topic maps [was: why are web pages "pages"?]

The Cmap software is very much like The Brain - except that as far as I can
tell you can't do you own concept maps in Cmap without installing the server
(but the server is free to non-profits). It is also not as flashy an
implementation as The Brain. The CNET article Rebecca cites
<http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1005-200-4878621.html?tag=ch_mh> also mentions
Inspiration by Inspiration Software, Decision Explorer by Banaxia Software,
MindManager by Mindjet and VisiMap by CoCo Systems.
Does anyone know if any of these "concept mapping" tools use or plan to use
the topic maps standard [ http://www.infoloom.com/faq.htm ]? It would seem
to provide a way to import/ exchange/communicate among/ concept maps.

'Why are Web pages "pages"?: "Canas heads a team that took a learning
tool called concept mapping, developed with paper and pencil in the
1970s, and turned it into a pageless method of browsing Web sites."
Sounds a bit like The Brain.'

When it shall be said in any country in the world, 'My poor are happy;
neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them; my jails are
empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not in want, the
taxes are not oppressive' -- when these things can be said, then may
that country boast of its constitution and government. -- Thomas Paine
