Everything2 you and I.

Try it out, just search for anything. Uncommon words with user-submitted definitions are hyper-links to the node on that term which of course has the same machine-parsed links to other nodes mentioned in the articles. It's sorta like a micro-cosm of what the internet was intended to be.
Some of the associations are a little off-the-wall but generally it's an accurate portrait of people's associations and connotations. At least, the people who use everything2.
Sorta reminds me of days past on the internet. When most people who made webpages knew how to use hypertext. Things have definitly dumbed down since then, it's nice to see an island of (pseudo-?) intellectuality still preserved.
I encourage everybody to write nodes. There isn't a node on homo-masculinity or gay bears, for instance ;)
