Mapping your mind with Curio 4
Monday, June 18, 2007
The big feature in Curio 4 — which is probably the most requested feature we've ever received — is mind mapping. In Curio 4, mind mapping is now integrated in with your idea space. Like a list figure, a mind map is simply another type of collection figure. It can contain any other type of figure including movies, images, songs, document assets, web links, and, of course, text.
These contained figures can have all the normal attributes such as flags and tags, plus some new goodies we're introducing in Curio 4 such as resources, start/due dates, durations, and priorities. Dates and completion percentages can even bubble up through the mind map hierarchy so you can see how your overall mind map is doing at a glance. Your idea space can have any number of mind maps, lists, and free-floating figures anywhere on the page. And, you can customize the style of your mind map to make it look anyway you want.
We're on target for a release in the next few days, so we thank you for your patience! In the meantime, here's a teaser mini-screenshot. :-)

Great stuff guys. Can't wait.
Very glad to see you're providing a map (and a dog) so those of us who have lost our mind can find it.
All we need now in Curio is support for a timer attached to a USB-powered cattle-prod...

Tried Curio 3 and liked it a lot but I really want to try out the mind-mapping features in 4 before purchasing, is there any definite news on a price rise?

Any chance Curio 4 will be released this week? This teasing is getting to me!
Interesting to see how the mind mapping compares and contrasts with the other players...I'm thinking of getting some MM software (read lots of reviews) - hopefully Curio 4 will do all I want and more!
