Webware Attempt #4

This post is part of my ongoing marketing experiment.

After I sent the email, I realized that one of the links got currupted. So I resent the email in case I was due for a miracle. But alas, it wasn't my day (or week, or month.)

I realized after I sent the email that the link for the annotated Trailfire post was invalid.

This is the correct link:

I am sorry for the inconvenience

Webware Attempt #3

This post is part of my ongoing marketing experiment.

I heard nothing back from Webware, so I tried another email. Nothing... (What did you say, it's like I was banging my head against the wall? Yes, you're right, except that this is more painful.

Note: I did not hear back from your site, so I am sending you another email in case it got lost.

Dear Editor,

JumpKnowledge, located at http://jkn.com, is a new annotation tool which builds upon our previous successful email web page tool.

Some advantages that JumpKnowledge has over a tool such as Trailfire:

1. Fully web-based. All you need is a browser with JavaScript to create annotations. (To read annotations, you don't even need JavaScript)

2. Comments are inserted "in vivo" (between the words), so nothing of the original page is obscured and comments can be read in context. This means the full page can be printed for off-line reading.

3. Easy emailing, bookmarking, and linking to blogs.

We just launched at the beginning of the year and already have blogs using JumpKnowledge to annotate news stories.

These are from http://delawarewatch.blogspot.com
