I am the founder, BDFL, leader, "oh no! that guy" or whatever you want to call it of this merry band of amazing and lovable writers. I also run this blog. Hope you have liked the fine work you have seen so far. My post is going to be a bit different from the norm. It is not going to be fiction at all, but a review of a tool that may be useful for the writers among you. It is going to be in an informal style and covers the basics for our needs without going into too much depth about all the features.
This post is about "World Building" using MindMup. It is a web-based mind-mapping software focused on making it quick, easy and smooth to use. I would definitely agree with them about meeting their intended goal but regarding world-building I'd say the end results decent but mixed.
To that end, I put utilized a world I have created already with the free version of their program to see how quick and easy a good Mindmap tool could be for our purpose of making a visual for a living breathing world and easily accessing all the information. The results are encouraging but only up to a point.
