About: thinkmap visual thesaurus - an online thesaurus and dictionary of over 145,000 words that you explore using an interactive map.
Visual Thesaurus in a way is a navigable tagcloud which follows dictionary definitions – I would call that divergence coefficient of 1.

regarding my comment above, one nieche for our thinking domains is that we should be able to leverage others work … even (and especially) if they want to collect revenue from it. We can do that via our business model of users actually paying for premium features … unlike the business models of sites like FB which must rely on advertising. Making all of that work with plugins, gaming, and premium accounts and the cash flow of money is kind of exciting for some and might require taping into some MBA types of entrepreneurs. Expanding into the world is different than expanding into my subjective mind ← said mostly to myself.

Is divergence coefficient of 1 your internally negotiable and found acceptable code word for just saying “that’s exciting!”?

mark, i have no idea what your “divergent coefficient 1” means to you. it will not help for me to guess.

Yeah, my thought invention. when you follow a thought or thread & stay strictly on topic – like a dictionary or thesaurus I would call that a 1 on divergence. THe farther away you get from the topic the larger the divergence number gets. A 100 would be the traditional “off topic”. 
Such is similar to AI . An AI coefficient of 1 or 2 says that the system, device etc multiplies the user’s intelligence just about like a calculator or an adding machine. Something like fighter pilot controls are way up to a 10. The more the machine can replace a human who has to think to solve the problem the more the coefficient goes up.
Just a wallaby ++

hmmm … so is it a measure of focus (or stubbornness vs flexibility or openness to possibilities ) ?

Somewhere in the mathematics of graph theory & lattice & vector theory there may be the notion of how far out the network of nodes spreads. If it doubles every generation that is binary. A pyramid or ponzi tree expands slowly in depth (or height) compared to width. etc. I am not specific nor am employing psychological terms or emotional content – just form & structure. – still just a wallaby, but I am sure graph theory has some names for it.
2016-01-25 15:34:02 [item 19757#43601]
the thing i keep wanting to say here is that there is a big difference in graph theory between lattice like “spreading” and amorphous and/or symetric (or not semetric) “network spreading”. i don’t know if that meshes with your thought or is a totally different direction. CFR in grammar of changes was only studying lattice like expansion … biology however may not limit itself like that.

Whatever you seem to think I opened a debate. Was jotting down a wallaby – like it or NOT. You just diverged widely.
2016-01-25 16:11:24 [item 19757#43609]
lol … no debate at all … just spreading wallabie 
… what, you think your wallaby when dropped in the pool should spread no waves? tis, me thinks, the nature of thought itself.
