  • If you want to write a comment about page 32 of "On Beauty," what do you link to?
    • It sounds like the issue he's really talking about is how do you cite, because I think how you link is pretty straightfoward - I think you link to the text (or image or . . .). The other piece of that, of course, is how do you pull it altogether. Using comments via Diigo as an example, how do you ensure those comments come through and are displayed correctly if you are reading this on a desktop computer, on a netbook, on an iPhone, on a Kindle, etc. (notably absent, of course, is print). - on 2009-04-22

  • A playlist of the best chapters from "Middlemarch," "Gravity's Rainbow" and "Beloved" will never work the way a playlist of songs culled from different albums does today.
    • I don't disagree that there's much to be gained by deep-focus, sustained reading (and writing for that matter). We definitely need to keep this. But, again, there's another side. Perhaps the playlist he describes will "never workr the way a playlist of songs" does, but can it work in an entirely new way? Different than a playlist of songs, but also different than a 400 page book? - on 2009-04-22
