Karl Fisch on 06 Nov 11Essential Questions: 1. Is reading a "fundamentally private activity" as the author states it has been? Consider how you would answer this question 20 years ago, today, and 20 years from now. 2. How is reading and annotating this article online in conjunction with others the same as reading the un-annotated/printed version (and think about printed material in general), and how is it different? 3. What are the implications of this for teaching and learning, and for your classroom?

I knew then that the book's migration to the digital realm would not be a simple matter of trading ink for pixels, but would likely change the way we read, write and sell books in profound ways.

Terry - I'm seeing the same thing. Sometime when I visit the page the annotations are there, sometimes not. Haven't seen that before so I'm not sure what's going on.

Terry - Interesting. It looks like if I'm on the page and add the http:// in front of the URL, the annotations appear again (when I just click on the link they don't). Must be something weird with how the WSJ is handling pages and how that interacts with Diigo. Perhaps I chose a poor article to demonstrate this with, huh? :-)
