Mapping

We need a wholesale move from chronological thinking to spatially-organized thinking. Chronological thinking forces us to build maps of the situation under consideration in our heads, limiting our engagement and muddying the action points.

DebateGraph.org

DebateGraph.org is a publishing platform for interconnectable, community-constructed networks of spatially organized thinking. It drives action. By putting the maps we used to build in our heads on the computer screen DG allows us to step back and see the forest for the trees ... and other forests and the paths between them.

Viewing a map

We need DG maps to give us, the map-readers, the fastest route through the route space. What does that mean? Once a new landscape is mapped those who possess the map can navigate quickly to their journey's end, following the links that connect the various DebateGraph elements. In terms of knowledge mapping, the maps provide pathways through a landscape of knowledge.
