TagShadow for (go (game))
Go is a complex game played with black and white stones on a large grid. It turns out that there are numerous references to this game in speculative fiction. Some of these references are to games similar to, but not actually called go. The Literature page at Sensei's Library provided most of these examples and delves further into the nature of the go reference.

This space displays a scatterplot of books where
similar books are closer together. Color is used
to further distinguish groupings.
The "tag cloud" (far left) displays frequency distribution. More frequently used tags receive a larger font.
The "tag shadow" (big box with dots) attempts to capture that frequency distribution in a more visual medium. Try and embrace the "cloud" metaphor and imagine shining a light through the above "tag cloud." Effectively what I've done is shine that light from a whole bunch of different dirrections and found the most interesting shadows. I've then plotted the 2 most useful shadows against each other.
