Mindmapping goodness
Mindmeister looks like an interesting idea - is there anywhere Social Networking won’t go?
MindMeister brings the concept of mind mapping to the web, using its facilities for real-time collaboration to allow truly global brainstorming sessions.
Users can create, manage and share mind maps online and access them anytime, from anywhere. In brainstorming mode, fellow MindMeisters from around the world (or just in different rooms) can simultaneously work on the same mind map - and see each other’s changes as they happen. Using integrated Skype calls, they can throw around new ideas and put them down on “paper” at the same time.
I may well give it a go in the near future - anyone else using it?

A lot of people are using MindMeister. I watch this area actively and my impression is that it’s ahead of the pack, but the pack is awfully big. Some of the alternatives are free and MindMeister’s free option runs out after a few maps, and doesn’t offer all the features.
Here’s what I know of:
bubbl.us Collaborative mind mapping (radiant format not enforced)
comapping.com :- Collaborative (but, for people who like free-format mind mapping, rigid) left-to-right mind mapping
glinkr.net :- Concept mapping and mind mapping (shared but not collaborative)
mindmaps.kayuda.com :- Collaborative mind mapping and concept mapping
mappio.com :- Unusual mind mapper where the user edits indented text to change the mind map
mapul.com :- Collaborative mind mapping with an organic flavour
mind42.com :- Collaborative mind mapping
mindmeister.com you mentioned
mindomo.com :- Collaborative mind mapping
wikimindmap.org :- Make mind maps from WikiMedia articles
wisemapping.com :- Collaborative mind mapping
webofweb.net :- Collaborative mind mapping
You can also do mindmapping with some of the Web 2.0 diagramming tools - these support mind maps:
cumulatelabs.com/cumulatedraw/ :- Collaborative diagramming – can draw mind maps and concept maps
flowchart.com :- Collaborative diagramming – can draw mind maps and concept maps
gliffy.com :- Collaborative diagramming – can draw mind maps and concept maps
thinkature.com :- Collaborative on-line whiteboard service - can draw mind maps and concept maps

I posted quite a long comment here, and the beginning was chopped off. I’ll try again, because it had useful information (well, I think), that was lost. I’ll do it in the next comment in case this also gets chopped.
