  1. My in-process article on Commentpress, in Commentpress: http://new.plannedobsolescence.net

    1. This link appears to be broken. I’m so eager to see how you’re using this.

      1. Yeah, that’s a 2+ year old link, which is no longer working.  That article is now readable at http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/mcpress/cpfinal and my book, also in CommentPress, is available at http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/mcpress/plannedobsolescence.

  2. I created a website with the Constitution of Denmark for people to debate a much talked about future update of the law. It’s called Grundlovs Debat.

    It’s in Danish though, so non-Danish readers probably won’t get much out of it, but Commentpress is a very cool tool for discussing texts like that.

  3. I am using the Theme to dust off and work on a decade old project: Nomads at the Gate (http://dubnick.com/nomads/). I am just getting use to WP, so this is going to be slow process of gearing up….

  4. Howdy Book Futurists,
    I am setting up a “Plog” at http://www.didactalab.de/plog – right now it is in German language, but here is a short synopsis of the Plog idea:
    A “Plog” is a Publication Blog, where the author(s) reflect their publications:

    Short synopsis of the most important points with some quotes
    reflection of thoughts
    background infos and material, insights from today (what was good, where did we go wrong etc.)
    rediscover ideas
    make texts accessible where no fulltext is in open access
    start discussion with readers
    collect ideas, questions, contra-positions etc. from the readers

    It’s a great tool – thanks for making it available!

  5. Scholr 2.0 : a white paper by Scholars Portage
    (”getting research from one body to another”)

    Much thanks for Commentpress and all your work!

  6. I’ve been eager to try this since it came out. We just published a Commentpress version of a new NMC white paper “Social Networking, the “Third Place,” and the Evolution of Communication”

  7. I am a middle school teacher and my advisory/homeroom is using the blog to discuss a book we are reading. The students and I take turns reading the book. We record the readings in Audacity and upload the mp3s to the blog posts for students who are absent. Our discussions are pretty basic at this point, but I think the format has potential for giving students practice in reading, writing, speaking and listening.

    1. You could also use this to collaboratively translate a text ;-)

  8. I had a similar idea about three years ago at the library, nice implementation!

  9. I use Commentpress as the layout for my AP Biology class’ blog, where we discuss issues in science, technology and society: TheBiologySpace.BioBlog

  10. Just another person testing out commentpress. neat idea; in our software we’ve got word-by-word commenting so teachers can click just about anywhere in a student’s work and write in comments, which has its advantages and disadvantages vs this.

  11. CUNY just put a draft of its 2008-2012 Master Plan up using Commentpress.

  12. I used Commentpress to put my entire master’s thesis online for public scrutiny.

  13. Correspondence training in theology and apologetics for students in Russia and the Ukraine.
    We just started. Give me a couple of months and I will be able to give you a kind of report…

  14. A site for commenting on public reports in considerable detail. Texts are broken down into their respective sections for easier consumption. Rather than comment on the text as a whole, you are encouraged to direct comments to specific paragraphs.

  15. this is a great application. Looks like something that can really help collaboration.

  16. [...] través de los comentarios que pueden leerse en los ejemplos que ofrecen los creadores, he llegado a la página de Jack Slocum -un lugar muy interesante para [...]
