Well, I don't know if my plan would eliminate overlaps, but on further thought I think that it might be too complicated.

I found a real fun use for the set browser that works well without it, Names! Movies + TV shows work ok too, but there there seems to be too much noise. With people it's there too, but it tends to be funny. Try starting with Hillary Clinton! Also, a search for Bill Clinton links to "Slease" and funnier still is that "Slease" Links back to Bill Clinton!

What I was thinking though is that it would be nice if you could set the initial locality to 3 or 4 instead of 2. This way people would not have to go through the confusion of finding the locality scroll bar behind the zoom one.

Also, retrieving the search results seems to work pretty fast. Why not retrive them at radius 2, the way the GoogleBrowser does it?
