?Nate & Lucas thanks for the responses.
Nate, I think it would be asking a bit much to suggest the hector team
implement convenience methods for
a graph representations. But if we went ahead and forked hector, I'd be sure
to contribute back what i can and just release it as another client
or if the final product can be merged with hector...
I'd like thoughts on any features outside my own usecase though so that we
can build it to handle other use cases as well.
Lucas, I understand what you're saying but i've had a quick play with neo4j
and the expense we'd pay for reads offsets a lot of the
setbacks i'd run into using neo4j, not to mention having to learn it...

Subject: Re: Cassandra for graph data structure
My idea however was to fork hector, remove all the stuff i don't need and
turn it into a graph API sitting on top of Cassandra.
We are always looking for ideas and design feedback regarding Hector.
Please feel free to make suggestions or fork and send pull requests.
