Who doesn't love a graph? I do. As you commented elsewhere in this post, _"Actually, this is more for others than it is for me. I wanted to share my Pocket list with the world..."_ Essentially, this is an _information illustration_ of the cosmos of ideas inside your head. haha. That's cool.

How is it useful?

On the one hand, manually tagged data is the first phase of making data useful in many knowledge systems. On the other hand, algorithmically scraping resources and creating a graph from that data is going to be bananas complicated.

Here's what I'm curious about. Can your curated graph be used to pick out same clusters from a superset of links which include the second graph?

Sure, what I'm describing is a search problem. And it's about words whether they're in a string, vector, or graph structure. And that's all very interesting in it's own right. What's also interesting is a fuzzy search that's fuzzy in a graphy way. Is that a thing? I don't know, but I want to know.
