Wikipedia Related Document Retrivla is in. But....

I've added Wikipedia document retrieval to my application, but there's a design flaw. Tags currently operate in isolation, unaware of each other's related Wikipedia articles. This can lead to duplicate content in the "related articles" section. To fix this, I need to implement a system that allows tags to share information and avoid redundancy, ultimately improving the user experience.

The Failures of my First AJAX application: Part 5

This is the fifth installment in my series on the AJAXTagger's failures. A major issue is its lack of intuitiveness. Users couldn't understand its purpose or how to use it without a demo.

I'm looking for feedback on how to make it more user-friendly, including better visual cues, a clearer UI, and improved documentation. Email me or comment with your suggestions!
