Right click some text and select 're-word'. Your
responsibility is to re-word exactly what the author was
trying to say.
People can see re-worded sections by clicking on a piece of
text and then a panel slides out showing re-worded versions
of what people have said.
Please log in.

<types>ridicule [chron...ic..] for their naivety |

This should support macros, like <RightClick>-<F1> adds the postfix superscript "LIE", <F2> adds "DECEPTIVE EDITED TRUTH", <F3> adds "CAREFULLY CRAFTED DISTORTION" ... |
|
| |
Ideal for annotating political manifestos, speeches, newspaper stories ... |
|
| |
Haha. You think you're funny, but you're not. |
|

That's something of a bone of contention at the moment. Not only did [MB] take our crayon, he took our favouritest crayon and bestest friend, Montgomery. The nurses can't find him, and we fear he may have been eaten... |

You could be the proud owner of the first ever Crayola Luwak. |

This is multi-user editing and is not a new concept. |
|
| |
Contemplating a single sentence can provide
understanding of all the mysteries of the Universe,
or so some sages say. |
|
| |
Sometimes what someone means to say is different
from what they are thinking. |
|
| |
You only have two layers there; there are several more. |
|
| |
What they think they are thinking;
What they are actually thinking;
What they mean to say;
What they actually say;
What the audience hears;
What the audience think they have heard;
What the audience want to have heard;
|
|
| |
Disturbingly, this is very similar to the OSI seven-layer model. |

Before 2000 I heard about and maybe tried (not sure) software that might have been called "third voice" that let you put comments atop any website, so if you wanted to say "google's font choice needs improving" on the front page of google you could and other thirdvoice users would see it. Right click is different though. |

Probably because of what [tatterdemalion] said. |
|
| |
(Not my fish, by the way.) |
|
| |
I fishboned because the voices in my head baked
this idea a long time ago. |
|
| |
Are you schizophrenic too? Do you hear voices for real? |
|
| |
Do you have an internal voice? Can you hear your
own thoughts? |
|
| |
// too // perhaps needs to be reworded in this case,
for clarity. |
|
| |
I am diagnosed with schizophrenia. |
|
| |
Thank you for sharing that, [chronological]. |
|
| |
I'm curious because, as you probably know, the diagnosis of
schizophrenia (in common with other psychiatric diagnoses)
has been subject to a certain amount of definitional "drift"
over the years. So, I'm curious about how you actually
experience what your diagnosis calls schizophrenia. Of
course, you may prefer not to discuss it here (or, indeed, at
all), which is fine. |

I don't like the term "right-click" - I use the mouse in my left hand (because I'm right-handed and so the left hand is the most sensible hand to use for a crude motor activity such as mouse movement and clicking, thus freeing up my right hand for clever stuff like typing), so I have reversed button settings and the mouse's context-menu button is the leftmost button. |

This could maaayybe be novel as a tweak to the
implementation of a wiki. In the case of wikipedia, there
is multi-user editing, but only one version of the wording
- the latest - is visible to the user. The revert wars and
tweaks are piled in behind and there is a degree of
familiarity with the system required to make sense of the
history. The idea here, then, could be to (a) allow edits
by clicking on the right (sorry hippo - I meant, of course,
left) mouse button and (b) to make those edits visible
also by right (yikes, left) clicking. The innovation is in
the presentation. |
|
| |
This could also (or instead) work in the context of track
changes in MS Word. Rather than ending up with a multi-
coloured spiders web, the reader can select a clause
(present, wiki style, in the most recent revision) and click
to read the one (or more) behind that. That may make it
easier to follow the history of changes to a clause. |
|
| |
You were fishboned by halfbakers who decided they
understand your idea after reading only half of it.
You are a genius! + |
|
| |
Now, there speaks the voice of (bitter) experience ... |
|
| |
Could this be re-crafted into "Right-click Reward" ? |
|
| |
If the AIs can compute more data than our own brains, right clicking may either boost an ego or totally confuse. |
