Resource: Annotags — a Decentralized Textual Annotation Protocol

Problems

  • How can we tweet about specific parts of a book?
  • #HarryPotterAndTheSorcerer'sStonePage23Paragraph11 isn’t practical.
  • How can we write in the margins of ebooks?
  • How can we have conversations in the margins?

Annotags: a Decentralized Solution

  • Not a product, platform, or service.
  • A protocol for encoding text metadata into a hashtag.
  • These hashtags can be posted to Twitter, Facebook, private blogs.
  • Annotags can even be written on paper and sent in the mail.
