"I remember in particular the requirement for bidirectional links and thinking that it was going to require too much cooperation to maintain them."

Although, partially, we are now starting to see this with "trackbacks" and "pages that link to this page". Of course, things would be much more complicated if this was a requirement instead of an option.

IMHO, for something to be successful in the "real world" it should have as few hard requirements as feasible, and as many applications as possible.
