    Hi Guys,

    Love your slide show! Particularly the figures about what you could achieve in such a short time. I have been mind mapping for IA and UX work for some time and my staff and I absolutely love it!

    I have also used it to write usability reports as it is easy to structure the points and make sure there is no repetition and then export to word.

    I did a preso on it here: http://www.slideshare.net/jamesbreeze/mindmapping-the-ux-...
    When I do an IA in mind=manager I use the organisation tree structure to format the IA. I find that clients are more accepting of this in this format. You will see it in my latest slide shows on slideshare.

    Congrats on getting the show of the day!
