Nice work. I've been looking for something Exactly like this, I'll give it a test run and feedback as much as I can.

Thank you.

Really nice work. The drag and drop functionality makes it really fun. However, I'm a little unsure as to the usefulness of the app?

I wrote a 3D run-time object visualiser for object-orientated code whilst at Uni ("Visualising Memory Graphs in Java3D"). It was interesting, and kind of useful for debugging, really good for an overview of your running program's object structure, but not useful enough to be considered successful.

I'm just hoping you can put a well executed app to good use, because the UI is really nice.

Really nice. Recently I built a very simple game and I used springy[1]. It's great to have other beautiful written alternatives.

Congrats to Andrei! He has one more, similar, product:

Both youtube and amazon visualization show very nice clustering. In case of technical books they cluster into, e.g., beginners, intermediate, advanced book groupings. It's impossible to notice that without the graph visualization.
