#2nice. i can see myself using this for django projects (a bubble for the urls.py, another for the view and another for the template)

#3Looks like something that should be implemented as a plugin for Eclipse or Visual Studio. Kind of interesting, though.

#4Hopefully this will make working on the Gridspy project easier. Typically I have 3 IDEs open - my Firmware IDE, Eclipse + Visual Studio.
In Eclipse I am editing a twisted project (usually 3 different files at once but only 2 methods from each) and a Django project (probably about 10 files to juggle there).
In Visual studio, I tend to have another 10 files open (the firmware builds to Win32 too).
God it would be awesome to have all that on one monitor in little bubbles.

I guess that is why it is an eclipse plugin.
Pity it doesn't interoperate with all eclipse-compatible languages (just yet). I'd love to use it to work with Python.

Not even kind of the same thing.

#9I feel like the response has been fairly lukewarm, but to me this is some really nice (dare I say game-changing) stuff. Mindmap + IDE = great. Why? I have written in a variety of languages, and my number one complaint, whether it be with eclipse, textmate, vim, emacs, whatever, is the clumsiness of going from one file to another and then back to the original. Further, outside of actual development, when debugging, I really like to have all the different pieces open at once. This is a nice way for this to happen and is pretty slick with the different gui movement options. I, like other posters, would be really psyched if you could have some kind of MVC opener which would automagically open all the code files using a certain view. That would save a lot of time shuffling, and then save a lot of time by having them all displayed simultaneously. Anyway, I'm probably over reacting, but after years of having to go back to the mouse everytime i need to look at a new file or struggling to figure out in which square i put which file, this is definitely, in my opinion, a step in right direction.

Without screenshots / explanation / some more content, you're not very informative... (edit: I know it's emacs, but without explanations it's like saying C-x M-c M-butterflies)
