Free diagramming tool for web site specification

Are there any free diagramming tools for web site specification? Which is your favourite?

From stackoverflow
  • I usually use a Mind Mapping tool, here's a freebie that's very good. It's not v1 yet, but worth checking out:

    bob : I tried several days to download this, still broken. Any idea where I can find a mirror?
  • Dia is a multipurpose diagraming tool, ala visio. http://live.gnome.org/Dia

  • I'm not sure kind of diagrams you want to use but you could check out these:

    • FreeMind - an open source java-based mind mapper
    • StarUML - an open source UML tool (only for Windows unfortunately)
  • Inkscape is my favourite drawing tool. Has fantastic SVG support.

  • I found this one for Windows:

    It is basic but just what I needed to design the web structure

    @Touko, your link to StarUML is not working. This is the URL

    Touko : Thanks for noticing =)
  • Just in case you're talking about sketching out the UI specifications, Balsamiq is really nice.

    JoeBloggs : The OP specifically says a) Free, which Balsamiq is not and b) web-site spec, not UI spec. I love Balsamiq, but it's clearly offtopic here.
