| + | * '''Focal nodes''' serve as hubs for collections of related resources, in particular, activities and articles. |
| + | |
| + | * '''Peer nodes''' are roughly parallel pages on different sites that are not necessarily identical in content — especially as they develop in time through interaction with diverse populations — but they should preserve enough information to reproduce each other, more or less, in case of damage or loss. |

| + | Though I don't recall being fully aware of it at the time — we were focused on the issues of integrative education and the potential of "transversities", not the active geometry of the Web — many of these developments were already anticipated in a paper that Susan Awbrey and I wrote for a conference on ''Re-Organizing Knowledge, Trans-Forming Institutions'' and later reworked for the journal ''Organization''. |
