Out of interest, how does everyone else go about this? I tend to get an idea first and then find the links to support it, for example, I thought of Ferrari as being oft owned by famous actors (actually, it was Peter Sellers who popped into my head) and then figured on the Ron Reagan connection and put it together from there but obviously it's not the neatest way of doing it.
Do you just click every link on the page or do you start with a strategy? Curious as to how people's minds work...
