Ink + hyperlinks + searchable text + multimedia = Sumocat's Scribbles. Partly a "proof of concept", partly an exploration into the capabilities of the True Notebook computer known as the Tablet PC, entirely a waste of time, unless you are interested in reading, hearing, or seeing my thoughts about the True Notebook (Tablet PC), politics, culture, and whatever else crosses my path.

About Me
Known throughout the Tabletscape as the "Father of Ink Blogging", Sumocat spills ink as part of an open-ended experiment in this new field of ink blogging. Armed with his convertible Toshiba R25 (a True Notebook a.k.a. Tablet PC), he evangelizes the cause of ink blogging through word and deed. Only when ink stains every corner of the Inkernet will the Sumocat find respite. And if you be not a friend of the pen nor a knight of the stylus, beware... for you have reason to fear the Sumocat. |

i applaud you for making this screencast. I was very interested in seeing this put to the test. I can see how this system would be essential for any tablet user, me being one of them. However, mine is actually a convertible and though i do ink a lot, the fact that the keyboard is undeniably faster for shortcuts in most cases. It is too bad that keyboard shortcuts can be used for things like photoshop in tablet mode. I cant be in tablet mode while having the benefits of keyboard shortcuts.
Either way, I agree with you that these two programs are killer for anyone with a tablet-only setup, and I can see how it would be for convertibles as well.

Actually, my screencast does show how well this works on a convertible. I use a Toshiba R25, primarily in slate mode. I do swivel to use the keyboard when convenient, but ritePen + nirCmd makes it easier to stay in slate. Also, I'm expanding beyond simple shortcuts to multi-step shortcuts, like rename + copy to copy a file name, doing things in one scribble that would take multiple taps on a keyboard. Very excited about that.
