You see a word or short phrase from the 530,000 already suggested by other players, and you enter the first response that enters your head. Although you type alone, you benefit from the wisdom of the masses. The word associations you make are scanned for matches and listed with the rest of your recent work. You can <A target="_new" href="http://www.humanbraincloud.com/view.php">view the cloud</A>, which is really a <A target="_new" href="http://www.visualthesaurus.com/">visual thesaurus</A> kind of weighted <A title="" class="alinks_links" href="http://www.blogschmog.net/2007/05/12/value-in-the-network/">network</A> showing the connections to a given term. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.blogschmog.net/2007/12/12/the-human-brain-cloud/">Marketers could conceivably enter a term and check the related words, in part to avoid ambiguity and semantic competition, and partly to steer clear of easy targets for derogatory associations.
