I started by doing a test run with Gliffy. I have a little working knowledge with flowcharts so I tested the tools available.  Flowcharts are efficient ways to show concepts and steps for many processes in a way that is easy to follow. I could use a flowchart to diagram the concept of a sport  and the major steps involved in playing. For instance, a flowchart diagramming the basics on how to run bases in baseball could be made with an if then design that allows players to understand choices.
Mind maps seem to be more like an updated and computer centered version of brainstorming on paper. I messed around a little with Bubbl and I wasn't all that successful. I could see value in it if I had time to adjust to it.
