There are a few new ways to share your maps with others when you’re using the soon-to-be-released MindManager 8 for Mac.
Take advantage of sharing maps via iChat or access maps from anywhere and share them with others using Apple’s MobileMe service.
iChat and MindManager 8 for Mac
You can send or receive maps during any iChat session.
In the course of a chat sessions, co-workers often need to send maps to each other.
Rather than leaving the chat window, opening e-mail, creating a new e-mail, attaching and sending the map, and then returning to the chat window, users can simply send the map directly from the chat window. The recipient will see a link to the map appear in their chat widow.

MobileMe and MindManager 8 for Mac
With a subscription to MobileMe, you can easily upload or download maps to and from Apple’s secure cloud service. You’ll be able to access your maps anywhere!
Sharing large maps becomes much easier. If you’re mapping like me, your maps tend to grow large fast. Adding files, images, etc… will boost the size of your map and also make it difficult to email as attachments.
With MobileMe, sharing large maps is a snap! Just upload what you want to share, choose your recipients, and MobileMe’s iDisk sends them an email with a link to download the file. You can even assign a password to keep your files secure and set the number of days the download link is available.

Stay tuned for more previews, including more ways to share your maps with others!

Roberto, you’ll be able to attach or link to excel files. You will not be able to show them as topics in Mac’s MindManager 8.

Hi! I have been a user of both MM for windows and mac. I really miss the ability of including Excel spreadsheets within MM topics. Is better integration between MM and Excel in the plans for the new MM 8 for Mac?

I just want to echo the previous question. Do we have a general timeframe for the release? Days? Weeks? Months?
Apologies if this is still classified, or if I’ve somehow missed it.

For the release date, are we talking weeks or months?
Will MM8 for Mac support XML save in the xmmap format? I need to make a purchase decision and if MM8 for Mac doesn’t support xmmap it will be useless to me unfortunately…
