<DIV><SPAN class=493423506-05032006> </SPAN>Where it will become easier
is when one can have topic-map displays of collections of information based on
the concepts of "local attractors". This is similar to the "related
articles" selection in PubMed but I think they had to use a supercomputer to
do the groupings (on a database which only has something like 10 million short
abstracts). I think I have seen it on one or more news sites as well
(CNET perhaps?) but I think they confined it to their own news articles which
is a small dataset. I don't think even Google has the computer power to
map the document family intersections for all of the documents on the
web. If anyone knows of sites which do a particularly good job on this,
particularly if they display the information as a visual graph, please let me
know. <SPAN class=493423506-05032006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
