@QwxleaA @ade_oshineye @houshuang In fact, here's a good example of one of @andy_matuschak's notes interacting directly via webmention to create bi-directional links (albeit just a notification in this case) with my notes. https:/

@alexobenauer Markus Krajewski frames index cards and card catalogs as computing machines, and they've definitely been an operating system that have been operating well and flexibly for that purpose for several centuries now. #ToolsForThought https:/
@flancian #Hashtag handling is fine though I think there's more raw value in [[wikilinks]]. I've run into the issue between the two from a more natural text perspective on my own website in the past. How do you distinguish or create equality between something like #CommonplaceBooks and [[commonplace books]] for example? How do you crosslink things like this or #EdTech versus the more explicit [[educational technology]] where one is done primarily to save characters on a text limited platform like Twitter?
@elipariser @daphne_manuela Following on this, Robin Wall Kimmerer has some excellent material in Braiding Sweetgrass. I'm appreciating Elinor Ostrom's work on the commons. @AnneApplebaum's articles/books & @KateRaworth's Donut Economics all tie into these areas too.
Delving into an early version of chapter 1, I have to reiterate how much I can't wait to get all of @bookscribbler's Media and the Mind: Art, Science and Notebooks as Paper Machines, 1700-1830 (@UChicagoPress, Dec 2022) #ToolsForThought #NoteTaking

John Milton's annotated copy of William Shakespeare folio appears to have been found.

A quick search of the literature indicates the answer to be no.

@Weegee There are a few shows like that which have likely helped in the states. Brit imports on Netflix may be a bigger general factor, but I think it's been growing steadily since the 70's.

@mrkrndvs Ultimately you could have more text than the original, so there's really no limit to the text beyond what your system will allow. I've not tried annotating .pdfs, but I suspect you could do it similarly to how I've done books via Kindle which let's me export/import data (example: http:/
For more substantive annotations I try to add them slightly off to the side in a different font/size, but you'll also notice that some of the blue highlights also have "hidden" annotations if you hover over them with your mouse. Things can be a bit crowded with the additional highlights added by Hypothesis (and other people), though I can choose to disable them if I want for my personal work. Hopefully it's relatively obvious based on what's on the page which parts are the original text and which are my additions. When excerpting articles like Watters', the canonical URL on the page points to the original, so all the SEO and links ultimately redound to the original.
@katy_boss Publishers who want LOC #s are required to submit physical copies to the Library of Congress. This certainly cover all, but it covers a large proportion, particularly the professionally published books.
@scott_gruber In the erstwhile: I use MiKTeX for LaTeX and edit in WinEdt. Provides most outputs I need for physical publishing including high quality .pdf outputs. Depending on my needs, I've got publisher accounts at most of the online services as well as some of the bigger printers like Ingram for physical books and some distribution.
@cleverdevil It's official if you say it is. :) Ought to document it for the history books at least.
Andreas, The best way I'm aware of to do read posts with #WithKnown currently is to post a status update to the effect. I've been considering doing a plugin similar to Jonathan LaCour's Watching https:/
I've started hacking away at a Read plugin similar to the bookmark or like functionalities that simply bookmarks articles which I've read online, but it's got some quirky upstream issues that need to be solved before I can finish it. Ultimately it's really for online content more so than books (or even magazines) though. I may circle back around to it sometime toward the end of the summer as I'm trying to finish up some last pieces on my Reading workflows for WordPress.
@eatpodcast, Jeremy, on the topic of affiliate links, it's not all too dissimilar from having a Patreon link on EatThisPodcast, especially if you have a small disclaimer somewhere, perhaps by your Patreon link. If you had affiliate links on your podcast (or in the notes) to products and services that fit within the realm of your "brand(s)" or related to the particular pieces you write/produce, I would think it to be not only appropriate, but would probably go out of my way to use them.
The problem with some who use affiliate links is that they use them to their detriment, are trying to put something over on their audience, begin over-advertising, or advertising for things outside their areas of expertise. So for example, if you had a section on Fornacalia with book reviews of some of the best books on bread, I'd probably go out of my way to use your affiliate links to purchase a few. (In fact, as a fan of bread, such a feature is one of the things I wish the site had.) It would be my simple way of paying it forward to you for sharing your years of experience with your audience, which you're not otherwise charging in any way. On the other hand, if you started promoting links to hiking equipment, it would probably leave me scratching my head or even scare me away.
I occasionally use affiliate links, but my audience is so small as for the income to be wholly negligible. At best it puts a small dent in web hosting on an annual basis. Given what you do in particular on Eat This Podcast and Fornacalia, it's a simple way of helping to defray some expenses, but might prevent you from taking other off-brand bulk advertising which would otherwise pull down the tremendous value of information you bring to your audiences. The quality of your content is certainly such that you ought to have paid advertising, but in lieu of that I can't imagine that anyone would object to a few affiliate links.
