This one is called StickySorter, from Microsoft. Find it at

OR, to skip the back roads, go directly to

http://www.officelabs.com/projects/stickysorter/Pages/default.aspx

You will need to have the MS installer on your computer. (Kaspersky found no malware.)

Very nice! It’s brilliant for teleconference collaboration.

It is similar to some (expensive) software from the 90’s that is apparently no longer being developed

and Idons for Thinking http://www.idonresources.com/

Thanks!

Looks like they’ve reinvented part of Tinderbox.

You are right, Chris, Sticky Sorter is very reminiscent of Tinderbox’s map view, but with only about 1/10th the power. Nevertheless, it is a handy application for use in Windows, where we don’t have access to Tinderbox. I’m already using it for a project.

Thanks, Cassius, for pointing it out!
