I have used freemind. It rocks. It is easy to use, and easy to share. Since it is Java based, it is butt-ass easy to use on several platforms, so no issues with sharing your mindmap (.mm) files. The UI is smooth and is pretty intuitive.


If you like to brainstorm in this manner (mindmapping), it is definitely one of the better tools available.
