Re: Information Slapping

=============
Information Mapping is a phenomenally simple concept that Robert Horn
"invented", probably in a LSD fueled craze on the road to Vegas with G.
Gordon
Liddy and Spiro Agnew.

Hey...  No fair dissing the Lidd-ster.  It's not just anybody who can
eat rats and pick up chicks by cooking his hand on the back-yard grill. 
Er, that's to say (just to satisfy the thread) I agree...  Info mapping
struck me as fairly rudimentary.  It seemed cool because it was
presented in a hyper-texty looking page layout.  I saw it (and one of
the three above-mentioned celebrites) at some ACM Hypertext seminar back
in the old days (the 90's).  But as far as I can tell, the idea is to
organize your work.  It so happens that organization is useful.  

Rocket science, anyone?

ps
That should be *an* LSD fueled craze.
