Newsmashing: The new technique that will change blogging forever (15 Mar 2005)
How would bloggers use a tool like iMarkup? Take a look at this screenshot of my markup of Josh Levin's recent Slate piece on rappers and bloggers. Typing an all-text rebuttal would have been tedious. First, I'd have to spell out Levin's failure to note his conflicts of interest rather than just marking the holes on the page. Then, unless I posted his entire piece in my blog, you'd have to take my word for it that he never figures out the difference between "bloggers" and "political bloggers." But with iMarkup, I can just circle his own words on his own page—no more "out of context" alibis.
