deep conversation

thread trees

thread trees are threads where every message in the thread can branch off into a new child thread

this creates a hierarchical, infinitely branching and expanding thread tree data structure

each message in the thread is an arbitrary data container which can contain any kind of data, in our case we are interested in storing chat messages, but we could put images, video, audio and attach arbitrary files

this is useful because we can use the thread-tree anytime we want to organize something : a file system, project management, team chat, a conversation

for conversation the most interesting power thread-trees grant is the ability to turn any messsage into its own full-fledge conversation

this is very useful because our minds work in tangents in conversation with ourselves and others where one thought can inspire a new thought related in an interesting way but not part of the current context

our minds, and single-dimensional chat applications, force us to decide which direction to go in because it is almost impossible to carry on both topics with messages from both mixed in a single thread

treechat's power is that it can take that message and create a brand new space to explore its ideas, a new thread with the message as its title

instead of limiting and pruning your memetic exploration treechat provides the tools to pursue it

this enables deeper explorations of your conversation and thinking

you can explore more of the [[idea maze]] when thinking or chatting
