After five days and 274 modifications, you can see the final version of the “Future of the blogging” mind map here (there is still a live version).
It may not be an ultimate vision of future trends but when I look at the map I see couple of genuine and interesting ideas which are worth attention and to be developed in some (near) future posts. If this is the result of brainstorming session, I think it’s great.
I hope that we provided some useful info to people at MindMeister as well.

Grigor,
This was a great idea and I appreciate the opportunity to have contributed.
When I was adding some ideas, it occured to me that it’d be great to have you or someone else work through this map and streamline it a bit (as in actual off-line mapping), then welcome people to take a stab at version 2.
I figured now that we got some juices flowing - updating and organizing it would be useful… and then more ideas could come.
That said, I also realize this was more of an experiment, and for that, I enjoyed it. I think I’m going to try something similar with regards to security. I’ll let you know how it goes…
Michael,
It would be hard to streamline this kind of brainstorming because it was not aimed to any specific outcome; just a free flow of ideas on a very broad topic. Some end branches could be used now to generate more ideas in the subtopic: “information sharing by corporate blogging”, “credibility of live blogs” or “will the number of blogs rise or fall” (to name a few, without any preferences).
Any of these could be a center of a new map…
Again, brainstorming on any of these topics would fail if it is not aimed at solving a particular problem: how to efficiently share the information via corporate blog, how to check a credibility of a blog or how to increase number of blogs.
Security and anything related to it is indeed a good candidate for this kind of brainstorming / mind mapping. Go for it! I would be glad to hear about how it develops.
I see your point - and agree. I’m preparing to launch my attempt to leverage the path you shared with me. I’ll absolutely let you know how it turns out.
