N2 - In this paper I have suggested that the electornic text-capturing and
quote/commenting (Q/C) capability that has emerged in the last two decades
has created the possibility of combining the discipline and reflectiveness of
writing with the speed and interactiveness of speech in a form of interactive
cognition that is sui generis and without precedent. Whether with another
interlocutor or with a text, the interaction can now take place at the speed of
thought, rather than at the lamentably slow turnaround time that paper
communication had dictated. A series of experiments is described that will
analyse and quantify the effects of Q/C interaction, both between people and
between people and texts. In the interests of developing a corpus in the
service of the latter form of interaction, plans for the establishment of a
worldwide cognitive science e-print archived modeled on the Los Alamos
Physics Preprint archive are also described.
