A UI experiment in presenting threaded messages; rather than indented replies or a two-pane tree-and-message view, the direct replies to each message divide up the space below it, and so on, and the layout shifts to give more room to near neighbors as the user navigates the thread tree, much like hyperbolic graph viewers. This concept may become integrated into the þreader project. |
