    1. If you would like to know when and how a new feature will be introduced, there is nothing easier than to just visit the repository and check

      Also, we use huboard to manage our overall priorities, backlog and in progress items.

    2. on on-line pdf documents

      You can also annotate Local PDF files on your own hard drive. Anyone else with the same PDF file on their machine will be able to see the same annotations-- yes, really. Send someone a PDF via email and collaboratively annotate it together! (Just make sure you have "Allow access to file URLs" next to the Hypothes.is extension in your extension manager).

    3. Firefox

      A Firefox extension should ship in the next week or two.

    4. This problem might be solved thanks to the fact that every comment on Hypothes.is has its own url, which can be shared on social media or via e-mail, so an author can be informed this way (even if it is not the most user-friendly solution).

      As you say, in the interim this might work quite well.

    5. There is also no easy way of informing an author that someone has commented on his or her work, especially if he or she is not a Hypothes.is user

      We'll be working on a number of strategies for this.

    6. Last but not least, the interface currently works quite slowly, much slower than regular web content. This is probably because of the capacity of servers that host the project.

      We'd love to hear any performance issues. There shouldn't be substantial ones. We have plenty of AWS infrastructure spun up to handle current capacity.

    7. Today, the user profile does not offer anything interesting. It does not contain biographical information, avatar, contact, or anything else

      We've got an open issue for that (vision/#28). We agree.

    8. Using a specific user name to login, instead of email address, is less convenient and forces users to remember yet another, normally useless, bit of information

      The rationale here is to give people a handle, so that they can engage in conversation. Collaborative annotation, beyond the personal use case, is inherently social.

    9. Thus, in my opinion, the possibility of exporting comments from an on-line Hypothes.is application to a desktop application (which could be an extension of the pdf viewer) and back, might be a crucial point for the further development of hypothes.is.

      I agree. We'd love to partner with a quality PDF reader app to do just that.

    1. With bookmark programs, current Web browsers provide a limited support to personalize the Web

      This is about to change dramatically.

    1. It's pathetic. But censorship by companies controlling privatized political space is now almost a norm. Facebook is implementing its own "laws" for social behavior and politics. Even Twitter has now folded; censoring for example, leaks about the New Zealand prime minister just this week and some time ago banning Anonymous Sweden after a request from that country. High volume publication+control of publication by powerful organisations = censorship, all the time. We have to fight to create new networks of freedom. The old and powerful always become corrupt.

      Words to consider carefully.

    1. Scalar is a free, open source publishing platform

      Sounds cool

    1. Driven by the doctrine of manifest destiny

      Force login works now, which is great.

    1. annotation is presented or integrated into services

      I'm not sure this is true. Is it? Does the tool really need to be fundamentally different in design or integration? Different use case, different archetype. But what are the key differences you see?

    2. discovery

      What kind of discovery? I get curriculum development.

    3. learners in pedagogy

      Like... students? Not sure what this means.

    1. there remain challenges to annotating specific “states” within these environments

      Like what?

    2. representing interactive modeling or input-driven simulations

      Not sure what this means.

    3. then annotation must be particularly sensitive to the context of the use of educational materials

      Maybe the solution is to enable copyediting features and to use them when appropriate?

    4. If objects are immutable and likely to remain in the original context in which they were first published

      I'm not sure I understand this. I think we generally assume the annotatable part of the web to be either fixed content, or stable enough that an anchor can persist. So-- is this qualification necessary?

    1. “make a new comment” icon

      The comment icon is the "plus" sign at the bottom of the three tools visible when hovering over the speech bubble tab of the sidebar.

    1. Location should be default sort. Progress bar when annotations are being loaded. Searching document should also search comments

    1. A: Collaboration: How can we encourage/support collaboration while personalizing practice and doing practice online? Peer collaboration and teaching can be very effective techniques for learning. Teaching something helps the teacher learn it more effectively. Working in groups to solve problems helps students overcome obstacles, and through convincing and arguing helps them elaborate on their own understanding. If students are doing online practice, can we still benefit from peer collaboration and instruction? Consider online and offline techniques in an individual classroom. What might be possible in a MOOC?

      Group A:

      • Annotate the document
      • Live chat
      • Exercise specific chat / more general chat
      • More senior grades tutoring
      • Take a photo of the page, tweet / instagram, etc
      • For MOOCS, subgroups of optimal number
    1. They would of course say a lot of stuff in response to the request for evidence; the trouble is that what they said wasn’t evidence (let alone good evidence).

      I've witnessed this on both halves of the climate debate. Both sides will defend their position with equal vigor-- neither can usually command much in support of it.

    1. This essay explores the idea of intellectual communication and its improvement through the development of a shared academic language based on these and other universal analytical and evaluative concepts

      Our task then is to see if we can use these principles and others to implement a framework for deliberation on human knowledge.

    1. The president said the United States and other world powers rejected Russia’s annexation of Crimea, a region of Ukraine that voted to secede on March 16.

      That's probably not going to work.

    1. You will notice that the review includes a complete transcript of the online annotations; see below for why

      The link to @hlapp's stream for this article is here

    2. So in the end my experiment caused more work rather than less for the journal staff.

      We're hosting a workshop on peer-review and annotation May 15-16 in Washington, DC. Perhaps someone from F1000 could participate.

    3. ideally, a journal would have set up the Hypothes.is Annotator for itself such that comments entered by a reviewer would automatically be tagged uniquely such that they can subsequently be linked to the review and reviewer.

      Commonly requested. We have a stub issue for this here. (Just created).

    4. Google Chrome

      Firefox coming soon. Others to follow after that.

    5. Most online annotation platforms don't, or don't yet work on PDFs

      Ours does! The current Chrome extension supports annotation of PDFs using an included version of Mozilla's PDFjs.

    6. and in fact not even advertised on the front page

      Yes, we haven't felt it quite ready to promote on the home page just yet. We're close though!

    7. it really applies to the article as a whole than some part of the text.

      We already support "annotations" (i.e. traditional comments) that refer to the whole article that would be appropriate for this. It's possible that perhaps there is a role for a template of some sort for journal reviews that could live in the body of annotations like this.

    8. The comments I made using Hypothes.is became public immediately6, though presumably a journal-hosted version could keep them private until checked and approved.

      This will be possible with Groups which we're in the process of designing now, and will be developing shortly.

    9. But this loses many of the advantages of using online annotation to start with, such as easy pinpointing of text position, establishing a conversation thread, and making the conversation accessible to the public, unless some way is found to keep offline and online versions in syncrony.

      Exactly. It feels better to stick with rendering annotations for various purposes dynamically--rather than moving them to PDF as the preferred archival form.

    10. There is no direct way to create a PDF yet from Hyppthes.is annotations, leaving print-to-file as the only alternative

      If you could pull a stream of just the annotations from the article reviewed, and even scoped to just those from the reviewers, would that work? One could print the results of that stream to PDF easily through browser features outside of H.

    11. The Hypothes.is platform doesn't yet have a URL that resolves as the review annotations as a whole, or a single annotation on top of the online text7

      This feature we've called Direct Linking. It should come relatively soon after our 0.1 release. Our roadmap is here, and updated frequently.

    12. The URL interface that exists for retrieving review comments (the "stream" interface) shows them in reverse chronological order (most recent first), and for now there is no option to control the ordering

      This feature we call "View / Sort". We're implementing it first for the sidebar--there's a working demo here. The stream should follow quickly, since the stream and sidebar are closely related. There's a separate issue for that here.

    13. as the

      Actually, no.

    3. Thus far hath one of steep Parnassus' brows Suffic'd me

      That's fascinating! Who is Parnassus?

    1. Basically, with Ultrabooks, once the bad guys are in, there is NO way to get them out without voiding a warranty and desoldering flash chips. Luckily, Microsoft security, aided by McAfee software, all built on an platform designed by people who don’t even understand the basics, has your back, protecting your valuables with walls of rice paper obscured by blizzards of press releases.

      This.

    1. When the user is building a trail, he names it, inserts the name in his code book, and taps it out on his keyboard. Before him are the two items to be joined, projected onto adjacent viewing positions

      I love this early UX imagining of the linking/annotation process by Vannevar. What's notable here of course is that he suggested that creating links between things was a function that something visitors (trailblazers) could do. In a sense, to him the notion of a hypertext link, and a clickable annotation w/ two targets were mutually interchangeable ideas. Today, these are distinct. The idea that a visitor can do this, is only possible within the emerging idea of Open Annotation as we understand it now. It's why those of us exploring it are so excited about its potential.

    1. stratigraphy concerns the events between its bounding surfaces as well as the nature of the boundary itself

      Create an annotation here.

    1. Adding and searching custom tags

      Our current interface supports creating ad-hoc tags. We are planning some additional features in the future (reference to external ontologies, auto-suggest, etc #142). Is the current capability sufficient for Phase 1 MVP?

    2. If emails responses are sent to mailing list, links to those emails (or body text) should be added to annotation thread

      In other words, if I reply to an email , a reply annotation should be created. This would be expected functionality in any basic email notification scheme. This is included in our issue #1004.

    3. Credentials for identity (W3C, WebPlatform.org)

      EDIT: Changed to Phase1

    4. Show annotations on demand

      We support this now, via a "show annotations" toggle

    5. Annotation server hosted on WebPlatform.org

      Available now.

    6. Persist annotations across different versions of same spec

      With an embedded canonical URL this is available now.

    7. Toggle annotation functionality on or off

      Exactly what is meant here? With the extension, it can be activated-- i.e. turned on, but we're still working on turning it off! #468). We also have a "show annotations" capability, to allow highlighting of all source level annotations on the page. Will a Phase 1 demo be done w/ an extension, or via direct embedding of JS on a given page?

      EDIT: Changed to Phase1 at @tilgovi's suggestion below

    8. Reflecting comments in the mailing list

      Sending email notifications clearly seems like Phase 1 scope. How exactly annotations would be reflected to a mailing list and how that would be configured, needs to be spec'd. issue #1004

    9. Allow admin curation of links (adding links, or removing irrelevant links on same thread)

      Can you describe in more detail?

    10. Consider adding tags in new custom email header

      Exactly what you mean should be spelled out here. Feels like this is either Phase 2 or 3.

    11. Alert users when they start annotating an older version of a document (requires knowing the current version)

      This feels like Phase 3.

    12. Consider sending a custom headers via email, so replies can be federated, keeping discussion threaded and complete

      Suggesting Phase1

    13. Optional: Add special "classes" of annotation, such as tests results, that display differently in the spec than simple text annotations (perhaps as icons for browser support)

      You say "display differently in the spec". In what way? By color, by style of highlight, etc. Suggesting this be Phase 2 or 3.

    1. Some functions of physical books that seem to have no digital place are nevertheless being retained

      Tell me about these functions!

    1. Their research was published in the light-hearted Christmas edition of the medical journal BMJ on Thursday

      Like so.

    2. British doctors who carefully read Ian Fleming's series of James Bond novels say the celebrated spy regularly drank more than four times the recommended limit of alcohol per week.

      I used to read these stories.

    1. seemed

      new stuff

    2. Employers have hired at least 200,000 workers in three of the last four months, including 203,000 in November.

      NO,

    1. They put the fair-value worth of a single bitcoin at $1,300. To be sure, Bitcoin will have to pass several significant milestones before that price will be justified. Requirements include Bitcoin (1) accounting for at least 10 percent of all global business-to-consumer e-commerce transactions, (2) becoming one of the top three players in the money transfer industry, and (3) achieving a confidence or value reputation on par with silver commodities.

      These are crazy hurdles to suggest. If Bitcoins accounted for 10% of all global B2C ecommerce, or... was one of the top three money transfer players, or had confidence on par with silver... what would the price of a single bitcoin be? That would represent enormous monetary flow and liquidity-- what is the size of the silver market? The size of the global B2C ecommerce market is according to just a cursory google search well over $1T USD. Since there are approx 12M bitcoins in circulation, 10% of that market would be a valuation of 8.3x the current trading price of $1000... right? Assuming that bitcoins were only used in that one application and nothing else. In other words bitcoins are a bargain now if you think they have even a chance in hell of getting there.

    2. Mr. Obama’s shift — once known as a pivot, now re-branded as a rebalance — has always seemed more rhetorical than real. But when Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. travels to China, Japan and South Korea next week, the administration will have another chance to flesh out the policy

      Stick something here.

    1. Around this time, the numberof people working worldwide to generatenew science increased considerably, sothat the previous excess of space in thejournals vanished and there was anincreased need to be more discriminatingas to what was published

      Was this what drove the emergence of the elite journals, like Nature, Science, Cell, etc or is it simply the natural human phenomenon that arises whenever curation takes place, and some curators' attention becomes more sought after over time due to a variety of factors, such as their place within the scholarly community, their association with scholarly societies or other institutions of prestige, etc.

    1. In July 1941 the Chemical Warfare Service recalled Columbia University’s Zanetti to active duty, sending him to London to acquire formulas and related technical specifications associated with a British incendiary

      Just the same way.

    1. Swiss American architect Marc Peter Jr. was central to what unfolded. Peter coordinated efforts across organizations and individuals, and across the Atlantic.

      Here.

    1. The Internet Archive, which maintains the world's largest archive of old and defunct webpages, deletes its records of any site blocked by robots.txt.

      This may not be precisely correct. These pages may be "darkened" instead. The effect to outsiders is the same.

      Ooh, fun.

    2. Hispanic Americans

      Like me!

    3. throughout our discussion

      Here is something else

    4. also recommend broadening

      I do too.

    1. As you work through the experiments, think about

      Think about: 1) Where could you use this in your work? Crowdvoice: Copyright and context, description, date, etc. Could implement metadata embedded on export. Crowdcrafting plugin: Information is already there, so makes it more efficient. Crowd needs to less, less repetition. Hypothes.is: Need link to canonical location of images on the web, using embedded metadata. Possible integration w/ TinyEye: For easy identification of images w/ original metadata. Wordpress: Need plugin to automatically copy metadata to bottom of the image, to make attribution easy, quick and natural. Flickr: Make flow of metadata as easy as the flow of the image itself. Professional photo services.

      3) Who would be willing to pay:

      • Anyone w/ a nice donate workflow
      • Analytics about where your image goes?
      • Partner w/ Tineye to provide reporting to professional photographers.
      • Annual subscription allows to save config options in global account. Maybe store CSS styles, etc.
      • More like Getty?
      • AP. Millions of photographers.
      • Tip jar. Keep a %
    1. How do we help institutions find funding?

      Team 2: Q1 - How do we help institutions find funding?

      • Leverage existing for textbooks
      • Lobby librarians, central union?
      • Get corporate funding / grants

      Ideas: Overall: Adopt a flexible framework. Need options for institutions.

      1) Suggested donation. The "radiohead" model. Maybe there is some kind of bling or flair (next to their online profile) or bumper sticker for parents that indicates that the person contributed. Pros:

      • Same person pays (the student)
      • Paying substatially less
      • Institution doesn't have to find new funding, or change regulated fee structures Cons:
      • Not predictable
      • What does the pro-rata income work out to be?

      2) External grants-- student body applies Pros:

      • Institution doesn't pay Cons:
      • Can't provide service until grant is awarded.

      3) Freemium model. Basic access is free, but some elements (enhanced study guides for example) have a fee. Pros:

      • Any student can get basic access for free Cons:
      • Economic differentiation per student

      4) Adopt-a-kid model Rich families pay for poor ones.

      5) Get R1s to Adopt-a-CC Might help w/ Q2.

      Q2 - How do we work with more prestigious institutions that may dislike materials created by CCs?

      1) Get them to begin contribution to materials 2) Do a study comparing the actual materials, get external assessment. 3) Get high profile innovative institutions to adopt first (MediaLab, ITP, ?) 4) Certain subjects more attractive to begin in? 5) Mix of the above? 6)

    1. If following a link which goes to an anchor on a page, for example: [2] it doesn't seem to pick up the annotations which are for that page (only annotations made with that exact URL).

      Super optimistic about the future of life on earth and technology to make a transformative impact.

      Super pessimistic short term about this pesky climate change problem

    1. The only way through is either to find an untiring champion in the company or to just keep pitching, again and again, till you’ve raised enough of a spark to survive the organisation’s decision-making process

      I imagine this truth probably resonates with many readers. One strategy I've adopted when I know it's a long slog is to signal early to influencers that I'm not there to get a green light, what I'm there to do is lay out a roadmap so that we can continue to have a conversation as progress is made. It makes it much easier for them and it gives you real strength in the 2nd and 3rd meetings as you show you're delivering.

    1. The guilty plea and fine paid by SAC, which is owned by the billionaire investor Steven A. Cohen, are part of a broader plea deal that federal prosecutors in Manhattan announced on Monday

      About time.

    1. Ticket counters reopened Saturday at the scene of the attack

      Hey... I don't think so.

    1. A body passes through several stages as decomposition progresses driven by dehydration and discernible by characteristic gross taphonomic changes. The early stages of decomposition are wet and marked by discoloration of the flesh and the onset and cessation of bacterially-induced bloat

      Just like this.

    1. する。ジョバンニの労働はトムのそれよりもいっそう孤独である

      Like so.

    2. 働の記述から、私たちはたとえば

      Like this.

    1. Ms. Sebelius, fighting for her political life at a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said she was “as frustrated and angry as anyone with the flawed launch of HealthCare.gov.”

      Say whatever.

    1. the

      Which the?

    2. A balance must of course be struck between security and transparency, but that cannot be achieved while the intelligence services and their political masters seek to avoid any scrutiny of, or debate about, their actions."

      What?

    3. A report in Der Spiegel said Merkel's mobile number had been listed by the NSA's Special Collection Service (SCS) since 2002 and may have been monitored for more than 10 years. It was still on the list – marked as "GE Chancellor Merkel" – weeks before President Barack Obama visited Berlin in June.

      This.

    1. What is breathtaking, frightening really is that like Jonathan Zittrain observed, every point on the curve is the inflection point, and the mild acceleration we’re seeing now is just the foreplay for the main act

      Get ready to hold on to your armrests!

    1. Fury over reports that American intelligence had monitored the cellphone of Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany spread from there to other European leaders a day earlier and prompted calls to suspend trade talks with the United States

      Test

    1. The Wedding-Guest he beat his breast, Yet he cannot choose but hear; And thus spake on that ancient man, The bright-eyed Mariner

      Test of fuzzy

    1. Recently, a member of the House Intelligence Committee was asked at a town hall meeting, by his constituents, why my requests for more information about these programs were being denied. This member argued that I don't have the necessary level of clearance to obtain access for classified information. That doesn't make any sense; every member is given the same level of clearance. There is no legal justification for imparting secret knowledge about the NSA's domestic surveillance activities only to the 20 members of the House Intelligence Committee

      This is not widely known. It should be.

    1. Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain accused them of “helping our enemies”

      Annotation!

    2. The leaders of Germany and France offered on Friday to hold talks with the United States in an effort to come up with mutually acceptable rules for surveillance operations, easing a trans-Atlantic spying dispute that has plunged relations between America and Europe to a low point

      Will these talks be public? Doubtful. Will the rules be public? Probably not. It's hard not to be incredibly skeptical that the intelligence apparatus will agree to effectively stand down without considerable more pressure applied.
