Another week, another update - last night we updated MindMeister with a new version that fixes a number of problems, most notably the scrollbars which appeared in some browsers when inputting text into nodes. This should work fine now, with automatically resizing textboxes and full line break support (SHIFT-ENTER).
We are also proud to present two brand new features:
- Ability to duplicate maps (in map list context menu)
- Ability to publish maps, i.e. make them visible on the internet e.g. for inclusion in blogs
More to come. Further details on the last update can be found as always in the changelog.
Oh yes, and we’re up to about 3000 users from all parts of the world now, which is great because we still get tons of really useful feedback (even though we might have to work on our japanese to understand it all ;-)).

Last night we celebrated the 1000th beta tester on MindMeister, and of course minutes later had to start the first tuning measures - we apologise if the server was a bit slow at times and you got the infamous “Communicating with server” message. We’re working on it 
Also, we have just deployed another update which should fix a few more issues - have a look at the changelog for details (sorry, registered users only).
Meanwhile, we are working on some features that have been requested by a lot of beta testers in the 200 or so feedback messages that we have received so far - such as zoom in and out, auto-arrange branches (and avoid overlaps), export as MindManager / Freemind, as well as minor stuff such as print, toggle background, more icons, hyperlinks etc. Thanks again to everybody for their feedback and apologies again if we can’t respond to everybody personally anymore - we assure you that your comments are not ignored!

After receiving lots of very valuable feedback from all the beta testers we have just deployed the first update to the site, which should fix the most eye-watering problems (IE7 scrolling, more key shortcuts, text entry fixes etc). We’d like to apologise to everybody who got kicked out of their session during the update… Also, a <strong>huge</strong> thanks to everybody in the beta test for taking the time to check out MindMeister and for providing very detailed bug descriptions, as well as lots of interesting suggestions (which we promise will all be taken on board) - we sincerely didn’t expect this much positive feedback and hope it’ll keep coming!

MindMeister went live (into private beta, that is) today at 7:03pm! We are looking forward to an exciting beta test and tons of feedback about how we can improve the service and what you think of it in general - have fun mind mapping!
