This is such a cool program! ...,FastMindMap has all the features an author needs to get thoughts organized and written. I...have tried many other MM programs but having a dedicated panel for writing and adding images into it is critical, as is the ability to export to Word...The word count is genius. ...good job distilling the main features necessary for a good writing MM app!
