I noted with surprise that you are attempting to index wikipedia...just how much bandwidth/storage do you have? _________________

A fair bit. Try going now - I made node sizes relative to their frequency & relevance. _________________

OK, the green dot in the middle is your search term. The yellow dots represent domains that contain your search term; the larger, the more times it appears on the site. The red dots indicate the most frequently-occuring words on those sites, and the more frequent, the bigger the red dot. So a big red dot branched off of a big yellow dot is likely to be a good match for your green dot. _________________

You might want to filter out common words like "the" and "and." I searched my name and the most used words were "and", "for", "are", "this", and "the." I think you should filter out those words. The average user probably doesn't care if it says "the" a lot on a page. _________________

I need to figure out why that's happening. _________________

Perhaps you could also filter by proximity to search term? _________________

Nice job on the "words."
What do the different colors mean on the "3d words." For instance, when I searched "software" one of the nodes (correct word?) connected to words that all had blue circles, while the rest of the circles were red. _________________

The blue nodes are the ones that wordNet has determined are most likely to be good conceptual matches. Red nodes are other high-frequency words that may be related. As you can see, I need to:
>>finish stats
>>debug some word selection stuff (thanks JPez)
>>make the Help section _________________
