Annotated debate

From Kevin Marks, Boy Genius:

I took Dave Winer's mp3 , and the joho chatroom transcript, and synced them up.

Even handier in QT player, as you can search for words there.

Hybrid audio/text gang-blogging.

Enjoy.

Thanks, Kevin! This is a really interesting experiment. I'm just a little nervous about the semiprivateness of a chat being exposed in the full public of the Web, but, hell anyone could have joined. The joining of the sound and audio does change the medium if only because in this instance the chat goes by line by line so you can't see the entire scrolling transcript. (And I should perhaps explain that the random references to "doggy-style" are an homage to Halley's scathingly funny post about bed and breakfasts (blogged here).)
