technically everything I've described so far is pretty close to "scapple, but as a tab in your chrome". i'm not sure why scapple alone isn't quite cutting it for me. it still is the thing I use most for this use case (other than twitter) https://t.co/kdrc2jmI4R

this is getting fun Hayley Williams and Rihanna are both Aaliyah fans, who was a Michael Jackson fan Hayley used to play in a cover band that did Chaka Khan and Stevie Wonder Chaka Khan is a Joni Mitchell fangirl https://t.co/7DRA5mKJCh

over time it would look like a whole city. again I realize I kind of do this in scapple and yet there's something frustrating about how the data feels "locked up" in there... idk https://t.co/K9Mf7dq3KE

I think my core thesis (Visa's Bricks Idea) is that the graph paper format of presenting information is undervalued, underrated, underappreciated https://t.co/2aIAW4DU6J

@visakanv If you haven't already dug in at some point, learning to code is the most wild head trip I've been on in years. A ton of new ways of thinking come out of it. Idk how long it would take to learn how to build what you want but its fun https://t.co/yr7v72X3yn

@visakanv There are a few ways, but I would recommend doing a deep dive, instead of just learning a couple shallow bits My favorite free course for full stack dev is the Odin project https://t.co/18iFEUKzdA

@visakanv If you want to be able to make what you mentioned really fast... Try coming up with a similar product and google: "how to make a figma clone" (I chose figma b/c it seemed kinda close to what you wanted)
