A Buzan-style mind map

Since Tony Buzan made mind maps popular, the term has come into increasingly common use. Now, information maps that have been variously referred to as business maps, visual maps, idea maps, information maps, spidergrams, spider diagrams and bubble diagrams are commonly referred to as “mind maps”.

Where there is a need in WikIT to make a clear distinction between mind maps that follow Buzan’s guidelines and diagrams that are commonly called mind maps, the terms Buzan mind maps and Common mind maps are used.


A detailed comparison of the two types is given in Common mind maps or Buzan mind maps?
