I am interested in collaborators to help brainstorm and draft a grant proposal for project funding--or, just for building! My basic idea is as follows: a mobile reading application that will allow users to note the appearance of selected textual patterns. I am not thinking of a robust annotation tool, as there are projects devoted to just that. This would be a lightweight, easily portable tool that does one basic thing, and does it well--provide a social environment for users to save snippets of text on a certain theme, which can then be quickly tagged and cross-referenced with other snippets of text on the same them. New texts could be slotted in or new themes added on an existing text, and the results exported in a variety of formats that enable others to work with the data. I imagine this as a kind of targeted reading journal, but it could also be a valuable resource for faculty increasingly teaching with digital texts. This is still very much in the brainstorming stage, so I'd love to meet anyone who thinks this has legs and would like to help it start taking shape.
