Thing #14

I chose Gliffy and Bubbl.us to play with and compare. I liked them both, it seemed that bubbl.us had a less formal look to it while flowcharts were a bit more rigid and "official" looking. Gliffy gives you a much more professional looking product than Bubbl.us, so my target audience would determine which to use. Both mindmaps and flowcharts are useful for lesson planning and for a student's organization of concepts. It is much easier to make these things with these websites, I have used MS Word to do this previously and there is no comparison. I see that Gliffy has a floor plan option that might be useful for classroom layout plans. Overall, I feel that I will use both of these in the future.
