How can you create links, or relationships, that connect elements?

Discussion
There are many kinds of possible links. Several categories include: personal, social or professional connections; ideas, concepts and beliefs; languages and writing conventions (notes, reports, styles, summaries, genres, outlines, etc.); systems, practices, devices and technologies that enable communication, travel, connections, joining or flow of various kinds.

Questions

• What elements could benefit from linking up? How might you go about it? How would the new link affect the proximity or situation?
• How strong, or guaranteed, does the link need to be? What about a detachable or optional link?
• Might you create a link by breaking others?
• How relevant or topical should the link be?
• How ambiguous or vague should the link be?
• Where on a dimension from specific to general does the link need to be?

Examples

Notes, Plans and Lists
Writing down a note, plan, or list creates a relationship that brings other elements such as people, actions or the future into connection with your proximity or situation.

War, Games and Politics
