Courtesy of delicious network (thanks ldodds) I found an interesting wiki-like debating tool (DebateGraph) which maps/visualises a debate into a specialised ontology.

A good example debate is the current UK national identity system 2008/09 discussion (3rd item in the list of features maps) which includes:
- The Government intends to introduce biometric residence permits for foreign nationals in 2008, with the first ID cards expected to be issued to British citizens in 2009.
- All UK residents over the age of 16 will be required to have a unique ID card that will combine the cardholder’s biometric data with checked and confirmed identity details, called a ‘biographical footprint’.
This particular debate is quite relevant to much of the conference discussion, which naturally oscillated between the philisophical, the technical and the off-topics ;)
