A plurality of nodes in a database may be created and stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium and accessible by a processor. Each node may have at least one data element and be linked to at least one other of the plurality of nodes such that the link reflects a relationship between the data elements referenced by the linked nodes. A plurality of information areas may be displayed, each displaying information stored in one of the data elements and positioned relative to the plurality of information areas based on the relationship. The plurality of information areas may be positioned such that a final portion of information displayed in a first information area in a sequence is aligned with an initial portion of information displayed in a subsequent information area in the sequence.
