I've long been a curious tester of non-linear thinking tools -- mindmapping, concept maps, etc, and have an off-again/on-again relationship with tools such as MindManager and Personal Brain. I've had only a little exposure to XML Topic Maps -- first seeing them at a Seybold show a year or so ago -- and don't really know where they fit in the great KM schema. But if they manage to create a sharable visualization of how topics relate to each other I'm interested in seeing how they work.

Interestingly, I've found the UK and western Europe to be far more accepting of these alternative thinking methods than the US. This post originated with Ron Lusk but I found it via Matt Mower who, as luck would have it, is from the UK. I'll be following this train of thought closely...

The Tao of Topic Maps.
The TAO of Topic Maps. The TAO of Topic Maps introduces topic maps, a new ISO standard for describing knowledge structures and associating them with information resources. [Ron Lusk: Ron's K-Logs]
