Knowledge-Discovery Capability

John,

I’ve read of such serendipity occurring within a number of different applications.  One way I believe it can happen is any time a user tags a large amount of data and then browses or queries based on those tags.  I believe I’ve read about it in InfoHandler and within Zoot.  I believe Manfred has mentioned it a few times over the years in regards to ConnectedText.  I’ve seen it happen myself in WikidPad.

Someone recently mentioned recently on this forum a “critical mass” of structured data and serendipity showing new relations; unfortunately, I don’t remember who it was, the context, or the application.

I’m sure others here can give more specific examples of such beneficial data structures and applications.

Regards,
Wes
