two similar cluster-organizing websites. visual thesaurus is particularly fun to play with... click on a word and watch everything reconfigure. literature-map is interesting but i have not yet figured out who inputs the data linking authors. my tastes are seemingly predictable... i have not, however, seen edith wharton and tom robbins in the same cluster - but i could rationalize linking them through douglas coupland.
speaking of literary connections: please go read pulitzer winners "age of innocence" by edith and "angle of repose" by wallace stegner. then we should talk.
