What are others visions of relationships? As in,
what are they going to look like? A word and list(s)? A comment
(plus lists)?

ANOTHER TOPIC THAT WOULD BE GREAT FOR PIW. SHALL WE FORWARD IT OVER?

PERHAPS WE COULD STORE THE RELATIONSHIP AS A WORD (FOR TAXONOMICAL PURPOSES)
BUT THEN EMBELLISH IT WITH MORE INFORMATION WHEN USERS 'CLICK' ON A STRAND IN
THE WEB (OR WHATEVER THEY DO TO RETRIEVE INFORMATION ABOUT A RELATIONSHIP.
MORE INFORMATION COULD INCLUDE CASE STUDIES, TESTIMONIALS FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE
EXPERIMENTED WITH THIS RELATIONSHIP, IMAGES, WIKI-STYLE COMMENTS... THE WORD
COULD BE A CHARACTERIZATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP - MUTUALLY SYMBIOTIC,
PARASITIC, PREDATOR-PREY, COMPETITIVE, ETC.

IS THIS WHAT YOU'RE ASKING? AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY A WORD AND LISTS/COMMENT
PLUS LISTS?

SORRY, BUT THIS ASPECT OF THE PROJECT FASCINATES ME AND I'D LIKE TO UNDERSTAND
BETTER.

THANKS
