Discussions on Domains
Peeing in the Wind
Ok,
So I'm cruising the site. It looks to have quite a bit of structure and logically organized to boot! But no one is here.
Sometimes I click and get a link; sometimes a fill-in widget. I'm not yet sure what context invokes what.
At the moment I'm kinda naively assuming (at minimum) my posting drivel will at least be viewable on' my profile.' (Gawd, I hope not!).
There is much to like about what I see so far; and some rough spots that appear no more challenging than sandpaper. (sounds good, doesn't it? But you need to ask what is the grit?)
At any rate, off topic.
Is this correct?
Domains
Topics
Types
Properties
Yeah, I get the network interrelatonships. But, conceptually, is this close?
Now I'm observing, "why don't I get a preview function?"
We're working on discussions, so you should see more features as we roll them out.
Regarding the hierarchy, Domains are collections of Types. Types have instances (Gone with the Wind is a film) and properties (Gone with the Wind's run-time is 90 minutes).
We're working on the rough spots, and there are active discussions about them over here:

Aha! Pat. I guess it is hard to remember everyone who has been offered alpha access to the site. Now that it is at 1700 and counting, even politicians would have a hard time remembering names and faces in the community.
