I agree with p0cc that a simple screenshot of a more advanced list on the front page would be great. Even better: an interactive, non permanent example on the front page, maybe you can even structure all your talking points within that. For the app itself: why do lists branch off other lists and not items? Can I at least convert an item to a branched list? I'm not quite sure what the use-case is. An example again would help. I have to admit to prefer nested lists instead of mind-maps. When mind-maps are purely tree-like the same kind of relationships can be depicted in both. My nested lists fail when a child has two parents, with mind maps this is not a problem. Maybe you can lever on that advantage?

- "an interactive, non permanent example on the front page, maybe you can even structure all your talking points within that" This is good, I like this idea - "why do lists branch off other lists and not items ?" because I want to keep the UI minimal and this adds design complexity - "Can I at least convert an item to a branched list ?" not now, but yes is on my public todo list (ironically on trello for now : https://trello.com/b/mNeJCxNK/ymappr https://trello.com/b/mNeJCxNK/ymappr) - "I have to admit to prefer nested lists instead of mind-maps" it works for two or three levels of nesting :P after that, hard to visualize in a meaningful way in my opinion - "My nested lists fail when a child has two parents, with mind maps this is not a problem" again, I think it adds too much complexity to have a k-tree structure instead of a pure graph. Ideally I'd like something as minimal and simple as a Trello board, but without the boards :P Anyways, thanks for the feedback, you gave me a lot to think about and I will think about how to integrate that in a clean way :)
