Are you aware of any current applications/technologies that allows one to Tag a document at the **Paragraph** (or Chapter) level? (and Not Only At The Document Level)?
I am also interested Tag Cloud technologies that allows for the visualization of Tags associated with selected Paragraphs (or Book Chapters or Other Formal Parts Of A Work).
One of the projects in the Augmented Social Cognition group here at PARC is called SparTag.us. It sports paragraph level tagging. You can read more about it (and watch a video) in Ed Chi's blog post. http://asc-parc.blogspot.com/2008/06/spartagus-and-click2tag-lowering.html The last paragraph reads: "For more detail about the system we built, here is the reference: Lichan Hong, Ed H. Chi, Raluca Budiu, Peter Pirolli, and Les Nelson. SparTag.us: Low Cost Tagging System for Foraging of Web Content. In Proceedings of the Advanced Visual Interface (AVI2008), pp. 65--72.
