Hi John, Niels, I think of indexes in Neo4j as long-lived names. Not quite the "keep it local" that Niels mentioned, but not entirely dissimilar either.
Those long lived-names tend to give you starting points in the graph from where you perform graph operations. Indexing therefore constitutes less of your database design than it would in a RDBMS. Marko had a good line about this: graphs are adjacency free indexes (or words to that affect).
