! NEWBIE ALERT !
It struck me today why I get frustrated with Mind Mapping software and To-Do list software; they both seem to do half the job.
I visualize projects and tasks in a Mind Map format and can get all my thoughts down into a Mind Map pretty quickly and logically. But then I'm staring a map that has no clear path of the sequence in which I need to do Tasks (other than working in from the outer edges); the map doesn't tell me what I need to do NEXT.
To-Do lists seem OK for generating a linear series of tasks - but it isn't easy to capture dependencies.
Is there any software available that lets me brain-dump into a Mind Map but then automatically generate a Task List in the correct order of dependencies?
Thanks
