Please note that we will conduct a major upgrade on Friday October 31 between 20:00 (UTC) and 22:00 (UTC) and on Sunday November 2 between 20:00 (UTC) and 2008-11-3 02:00 (UTC). To figure out when we are offline in your time zone please consult timeanddate.com.
Please avoid taking your maps offline with Google Gears this time as we also upgrade MindMeister’s offline capabilities.
While the downtime is currently scheduled for the time slots above, it might take longer as we also move to new hardware but we will do our best to bring MindMeister back asap. We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused and hope you’ll like the new features in the upcoming version of MindMeister.
Update: As you will have seen we’re online again with the new version. We’re still fighting with some setup issues that might result in hanging requests here or there. We hope to have these sorted out soon and will then let you know abou the new features!
Update 2: We still have some load balancing issues with the new server environment (which in theory should be much faster than the old one!) so the site is very slow at times. We’ll upgrade some software and will probably have some short downtimes today (Tuesday Nov 4). Please bear with us.

It’s just a matter of a few days now before we will release the all new MindMeister. We know it’s been a long time in the making and that’s why we’d like to give you a sneak peek at one of the new things now: the new History View.
More than with standard documents, the evolution of a mind map – especially a collaborative one – tells an interesting story, which deserves a proper visualization. We weren’t content with how the revision history of a mind map was displayed in MindMeister up to now, so we came up with something new, and, we hope you’ll agree, much better.
Try the short screencast below to see how this works now. And please let us know what you think.
MindMeister's History View
8Oct
We just closed our survey yesterday. Thanks a lot for participating. We had an overwhelming response both in terms of numbers and quantitative and qualitative input. We received 1,813 responses and lots of ideas on how to improve MindMeister and position it successfully as a premier mind mapping application.
It’ll take some time to analyze all the results but we’ll keep you posted on our findings, and publish whatever we think may be interesting to the greater public.
In the meantime we also selected the lucky five winners of the Threadless vouchers and sent out the gift certificates – congratulations!
