Starrynight Web site Interface www.rhizome.org

Each time someone reads a text at Rhizome.org (www.rhizome.org), a dim star appears
on a black Web page. When a text gets read again, the corresponding star gets a bit
brighter. Over time, the Web page comes to resemble a starry night sky, with bright
stars corresponding to the most popular texts, and dim stars corresponding to less-popular
ones. Clicking on a star triggers a special pop-up menu. The first menu option allows
you to read the text that corresponds to the star. The second menu option allows you to
select a keyword associated with that text. After selecting a keyword, STARRYNIGHT
draws a unique constellation of stars whose texts share that keyword. You can use these
constellations to find other related texts, and in doing so, follow your interests
through the vast array of ideas and information in the Rhizome.org archive.
