    I’m working on a project where I need to select several (about 5 and no more than 20) individuals from a list. There are 900 people to select from. A combo box would be unmanageable. A drop down list would be messy too. A search might work I just need to find the right mix of selection and storage. I guess all options are on the table from something simple to a google plus circle deal. Ideas and examples would be appreciated.

    Some sort of AJAX search, and each name would have a checkbox next to it. Then probably a floated list with the selected individuals on it.
