a spreadsheet—multiple directions, parallel chatting, the way the conversation builds made tactile/visible

the spreadsheet cell as a mutable unit of speech: can be overwritten, merged, or cleared

the tracks/footprints of the conversation also changeable, can be re/decontexualized

messaging through Are.na blocks, and keeping it anon (no formatting). when you read it back you can choose your direction (backwards v forwards) & connect blocks to form new threads of conversation

comments as a separate space maybe
