Hmm, maybe Subject, Predicate, and Object could spin, and stop, like the reels of a slot machine. While they're spinning, they scroll through thousands of triples in a blur; when they stop, they lock in on one or more triples. Instead of cherries and lemons, the reels could show thumbnail images, or the center reel could show a predicate. If people want to keep the list focused on our real work I'd be happy to take this offline... Tom -- Tom Baker <tbaker@tbaker.de>
