Mind-Mapping Software

Couple of mind-web style software programs out there that people may find interesting; these were based on a conversation I had over lunch with a guy who was asking about whether it would be posible to extend the life of our sun over the several millenia by bleeding hydrogen from it now over several hundred thousand years until it starts to burn helium (that's when the sun would expand in size to become a red giant) and then feed the H back in, thereby accomplishing two things:
1) the gigantism the sun will suffer from will be reduced (less mass of He to begin with) and
2) bleeding H back in will extend the life overall...phew.

Anyway, here are some links to click through. I may want to try the freeware one out since my brain is so stream of consciousness:

MindJet

FreeMind (Freeware)

I found these by googling this.
