Skitch and Thinking Maps

On a rainy Saturday in January (the 21st), I struggled through presenting how to make Thinking Maps with an ap called Skitch on an iPad 2.  It's a great program, but presenting on the iPad is impossible; the audience does not see what your hands touch and move so it's pretty hard for them to follow, unless you explicitly explain what you do step by step. 

The best thing about the presentation was that there were some savvy Android users in the audience who figured out some amazing tricks and told everyone else about them  The most important trick we learned involved the ability to shrink text.  All you do is tap on it with the finger tool and pinch to a desired size.  I had tremendous fun, and I am hoping the teachers will use it.  Check it out...
