I am experimenting with:

FreeMind – a free java based tool for concept mapping, can export in html, pdf and other formats

delicious, the social bookmarking tool. It takes ages to sort out imported links from firefox but I will hopefully get over this point and enjoy the tool. my public deli link page-so far.

issue crawler, the network mapping online tool.

Then, there is the google calendar and reader which I am trying hard to make use, for the study that is. And the blog.

The plan is:

to check bookmarks for new sources -to feed subscriptions from delicious to the reader- to write blog posts when there is something to say about pieces I read- feed pages in blog with information- reflect this information in concept maps (issue crawler is not yet in this scenario).
