Hi, I need a Mind Map software for building a network of people that I know. Can you suggest me something FOSS please?

Dumb question: what’s a mind map? i’ve heard of it, and seen some examples, but still have no real idea what one is for.

A visual method of storing information. It's meant to represent association. Thing a is connected to thing b, and thing b is this and that and so on. It's a method of organizing information by association.

Instead of like, family trees, in the case of OP it might be like. (Friend a) -> (friend b) i met through friend a -> (friend b's brother) -> etc. Then additional information is added like (friend b) -> (photographer) and (friend b) -> (big marvel fan).

Is a schema whwre you connect information thru a logical way. You usually use for studing and connecting the concepts. I'll use it for connecting the professors and universities that I know
