I ran across an interesting piece of software yesterday from DebateGraph.org. It creates a visual representation of a debate in a format that is dynamic and rather fun to play with.
At its base, it is a nested tree of XML code in a wiki. The graph can be displayed as an XML file or as a dynamic bubble chart that the user can navigate around by clicking on the bubbles. Like a wiki, any one can edit it and add to the debate. The Debate Graph site hosts a number of public debates on a wide variety of topics.
I’m also interested in how the software could be used for other purposes, such as trouble shooting or diagnosis of problems.
Check it out and let me know what you think.
