If this situation is driving you crazy, then let the open-source KRecipes help you with all those things - plus more.

XMind – brainstorm and map your ideas the open-source way

We all have a lot of things going on in your mind. We try to remember the best ideas, but without a good way to scribble them down, they often flee away. If you think you need to take that mind-mapping to a digital level, then XMind is just what you need. It helps you note your ideas in an easily understandable fashion and share those ideas with your friends and co-workers. In addition, as an open-source software, you'd be sharing your mind-blowing thoughts to your team free, without the need to buy anything. This is also very useful for teams who telecommute and who often teleconference or meet on the web. XMind lets them draw their minds and ideas, create lines and associations, put pictures and make idea sharing more fun than drawing on a white board in a conference room.
