Argue via aMap
Wednesday, February 11th, 2009I like this - aMap is a new service, allowing you to create an embeddable widget for arguing with others on any topic you like.
How does it work? You state a problem/question and your opinion/answer. The system then allows you to support your opinion by ‘arms’ formed by main and supportive arguments. The outcome is a mindmap, wrapped in a pretty good-looking, embeddable (flash) widget you can post anywhere on the Web. Others then can use this widget to argue with you in a structured manner.
The service was created by Delib which is supposed to be an Online Opinion Research and Public Consultation company and a part of the Team Rubber. I am just wondering what they do with all the (structured) data they collect, apart from printing aMap books.
Check out my first aMap below. I have chosen a bit more serious topic (content) as a contrast to the cartoonish L&F of the widget (form). Of course I hope I am wrong…
