Tagging @ Sub-Document Level(s)?
Colleagues/ 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.

CommentPress (http://www.futureofthebook.org/commentpress/) is a variant of WordPress that, as it uses a whole blog for a single work, can be of help. See it working, for instance, at "The Future of the Internet", last book by J.

Dear Alecea, I have just completed writing my Ph.D. dissertation which touches upon these topics and I would be glad to suggest some works from my bibliography. a lot of the works that Koen has suggested are seminal and were very helpful to me in my reading and teaching. However, I will add a few which are not included in that list: Baym, N. "The Emergence of Community in Computer Mediated Communication." In Cybersociety: Computer Mediated Communication and Community, edited by Steven G. Jones. New York: Sage, 1994. Burrows, Mike Featherstone and Roger, ed. Cyberspace, Cyberbodies, Cyberpunk: Cultures of Technological Embodiment. London: Sage, 1995. Clark, Andy. Natural Born Cyborgs. London: Oxford University Press, 2003. Dibbell, Julian. "A Rape in Cyberspace, or How an Evil Clown, a Haitan Trickster Spirit, Two Wizards, and a Cast of Dozens Turned a Database into a Society." The village voice (1994). Doheny-Farina, Stephen. "Representation(S) and a Sense of Self: The Subtle Abstractions of Moo Talk." Computer-Mediated Communication Magazine 2 (5), no. 15 (1995). Dumit, R. Davis-Floyd and J., ed. Cyborg Babies: From Techno Sex to Techno Tots. London: Routledge, 1999. Rheingold, Howard. Smart Mobs: The Next Social Revolution. New York: Perseus, 2000 Turkle, Sherry. Life on the Screen: Identity in the Age of the Internet. London: Weidenfield and Nicolson, 1996. Warwick, Stephen. I, Cyborg. London: University of Reading press., 2000. I hope this list helps. i apologise that it is not all in the same standardised format but I am drawing from multiple bibliographies which demanded different citation styles! I would be interested in getting a copy of the consolidated list, if you can share it. regards Nishant On Thu, Aug 28, 2008 at 1:25 PM, Koen Leurs <Koen.Leurs@let.uu.nl> wrote:

Ash, I am going to be designing a web page this semester to go along with my dissertation work on this topic. I could add a sub-section on resources if you think it might be useful. If I do I'll make sure to announce my pages on the listserv. Alecea Standlee Syracuse University Department of Sociology --- On Thu, 8/28/08, Ash <knowledges33ker@gmail.com> wrote:

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).
Thanks! /Gerry
