Mind Mapping Software for PCs

[jhmcmullen]

Now, though I have a mind-mapping program I like very much for the iPhone (and therefore also the iPad), I don’t have one for the PC.

I want two features:

First, it has to be free or extremely low cost.

Second, and this is the tough one, multiple parents for nodes. I don’t know how you mind map, but I frequently need to say that X is is a subnode of both Y and Z, and most mind-mapping software that I’ve seen is just a horizontally-organized outliner.

So, anything out there?

Great at theory, terrible at practice.

I can’t help you with something for Windows, but the people who make Scrivener have a beta out for Mac:

I use MindManager, but it’s not too cheap.
