I was entertained, and even as I admittedly started skimming after the first couple of pages, the organization creates a stroboscopic flicker of meaning even during skimming. That's probably what ER found so psychedelic, the old hippie.
Eri directly and Tom indirectly point out the drawback to the format: It's impossible to comment on individual items. But it's not going to be a problem in the long run. This is yet another example of why I love letting Zoners play with my software. I'd anticipated that people would always behave like Tom, posting separate items as separate topics, so I hadn't had to think about the other extreme. But with this example to challenge me, I see that there's a way to handle commenting within a long post, more annotation than comment...and that's all I'll say at this point. Well that, and that the technique will also support academic/teaching projects and collaborations, which will make it attractive to my professional masters.
I'd welcome your ideas on how to let people comment on this style of post, but I'd also say, keep posting the way you want to post, and let me come up with software to support it. And thanks for the inspiration!
