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
