efficiently finding lots of sites

[Jess Mitchell]

Dear Adam and David,

I wonder if we can start a conversation about this...  The Fluid  
Project has started work on a component we're calling "Pager" that is  
slated to have functionality in it that sounds somewhat similar to  
what you're talking about...

http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Pager

Have a look and perhaps we can have a group chat about this in a week  
or so?

Thoughts?

Jess
