    Abstract: Mind maps are diagrams used to visually organize information across a wide range of applications. If, a user is not within the mind mapping software application and has an idea or sees an item of content, e.g. an image, a webpage, a website, social media, etc., then they must remember it, jot it down, or generate an electronic message to themselves within another software application. Accordingly, the invention provides users with the means to capture the idea or item of electronic content within a software application or web browser plug-in, for example, such that the idea of item of electronic content is automatically rendered either within the mind mapping software application generally or upon their opening a specific a mind map. This capturing of content can be solely for the user themselves or they can provide to collaborators as well receive content from collaborators for inclusion within their mind maps.
