I was thinking just a few seconds ago, and yes in some rare moments the gears and sprokets do start turning the right direction in my brain.
About the way we do conversation on this forum. You know it seems often we end up going off-topic. I even find myself at times about to make a post or thinking of making one and realizing that I would be going off-topic too much.
However the truth being that most of the time it is not so much as going off-topic as it is just attaching a separate but related thread of conversation. I wish we had some really advanced forum software out there that could allow this type of natural flow while still leaving the main thread intact.
Maybe allowing the user to use a "Make Branch" button so that two conversation end points would be created instead of overriding one end point for the sake of another.
But at that same time I can start to have a hard time imagining a visual concept that could accommodate this functionality in a useful way. Maybe something more graphical with a tree look to it with sections that become compressed in between the origin node and the branch and ending points.
