I've been using mindmaps as a presentation tool and have had very positive reactions from the audience.

- The overview is almost always in sight.
- It's easy to move to the next topic (you need software that can collapse and expand subtrees, most of them do)
- You can leave two or more topics open (depends on the size of course)
- It's easy to go back to a previous point.
- You can edit things if needed.
- It's different.

OK, that last point might not be a real benefit, but it is often refreshing to the audience, and it grabs the attention pretty well :-)

Cheers,
Peter.
