Mind map with data feed linkage and social network interaction
First Claim
1. A method of augmenting a mind map based on at least one data feed accessed via a network node, where the method comprises:
- a) generating and exhibiting a visual representation of an object;
b) associating semantic data with said object, wherein said semantic data describes a characteristic or feature of said object;
c) receiving from a user identification of at least one said data feed to be accessed via set network node;
d) providing a control that is operable to access data from said at least one data feed including said data feed identified by said user via said network node;
e) analyzing output of said at least one data feed and identifying additional objects which are semantically related to said object;
f) augmenting said visual representation of said object with a connector from said object to a visual representation of said additional object; and
g) arranging said visual representation of said objects in a hierarchical fashion based on interdependency of a said object with at least one said additional object, wherein said visualization of said mind map centralizes a said object possessing a greater number of said connectors to said additional objects than other said objects.

Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosed technology comprise a method of augmenting a mind map of a plurality of objects based on at least one data feed. The method comprises providing an interface which contains visual representations of objects and associates semantic data with these objects. The interface allows for a user to access data from a data feed, and it analyzes these data in order to identify additional objects which may be semantically related to the object. A visual representation of the additional object is then augmented with a connector to the original object. Information about the relationships of the objects may be certified automatically or manually.
