Notes on Personal Reader

build Reader Interface using Are.na API: pro: visual and interactive freedom; con(?): reader has multiple endpoints, I use Are.na for other things too
use Wiki: maybe wiki table --> api --> to page? (xml); pro: easy to maintain; con: boring?, high wiki dependency, no 'individual page'
simple site on cereal box: html table, ...
general: should be able to embed and open pdf's easily; deal with additional annotation/ material; way's of chronology, indexing, connecting; maybe serve multiple purposes? personal reader, also recommendations f. visitors?

Update Nov 6th: use personal reader as research method, object itself; into text materiality, annotation and interface

Update Feb 5th: how do ethese new interfaces change how I process the material?
