Now I'm wondering how to document and visualize such information in a more systematic way. Greg Wolff of Unamesa Association http://www.unamesa.org has set up a page using Tiddly Wiki. Also, I may try to use TheBrain http://www.thebrain.com But first I will try to make a simple data format (as with a spreadsheet) and find an easy way to create the records and link them to our supporting correspondence and wiki pages. Then I can generate the system of links and show that in different ways using different tools. For the format I might customize the ProWiki that we're using as at http://www.worknets.org/wiki.cgi?HelpKenyans we are using metadata on wiki pages and drawing reports from that, so perhaps I will create an easy way to make such wiki pages, one for each record or something in that spirit.

If you'd like me to forward the emails from the thread, I'd be happy to. Just let me know. As I recall, there was a TON of useful links and tips.

There is software that can visualize relationships in a network,but I suspect it is expensive. Have you ever used any of those programs? It almost looks like inspiration.

But I can ask! (Or I suspect he will see the link and drop by himself.) Interestingly I know one of the people in the chain in Uganda from a workshop I ran in Ghana 3 years ago. It is funny how our worlds intersect. I think he hand drew it, Beth. But I can ask! (Or I suspect he will see the link and drop by himself.)

I have tracked the relationships via a spreadsheet for one of the smaller campaigns, but got overwhelmed in mapping it. Wondering if there is software that does it automatically?
