When I started teaching myself Prototype and Scriptaculous I wanted to
write a Visio-type of program.

The idea was to be able to add draggable boxes to the workarea and to
be able to connect lines between them and to be able to add text and
attibutes to the boxes.

I never finished it, but you're welcome to take a look at/steal the
code. It kind of works. The hardest part was the automatic line
routing.
