    There ought to be a way to adapt TouchGraph to the web site. All it would
    take is some added code in phorum that puts out a bit of metadata for each
    node that TG can use in an XML file.

    Another approach would be to adapt Lucid Fried Eggs to the task, such that
    all of its nodes are built by D3E rather than by users of Lucid, but the
    navigational views would remain the same.
