Thing #14

One of the flow charts I chose to work with was "Gliffy."  It is a really neat and free site you can make all kinds of charts on.  Not only can you make flow charts, you can make Venn diagrams, organization charts, and even floor plans.  It takes time to get used to, but after creating a few charts it is fairly simple to use.  There are pre-made templates you can use as well.  I chose to blog about "Gliffy" because there is so much to do on it!  It has many applications and is actually fun to create with.  The mind map site I chose to explore was "Mindmeister."  It was very simple to use.  To me, working with the mind maps was much easier than working with the flow charts.  It wasn't that the flow charts were necessarily hard to create, mind maps are just more simple.  Although the flow charts are a little more complex, they have many more tools you can use.  I liked working with mind maps because if you wanted to change something, you simply clicked on what you wanted to change or move, and put it exactly where you wanted it.  If you wanted to add text or a picture you would just add it directly to the created document.  These two sites were the easiest for me to use.  The tools on each were fun to use.  I will more than likely be using these sites in the future.
