Now imagine taking all the tweets (or other open social network chatter) about a certain site and having them dynamically associated with the sidewiki.... powerful. Essentially what I think will happen is people will lose (even more) control over their presence online, really forcing people to change the way we view things online, and what we're willing to put online. While I think it will encourage a lot of good changes, it could also be very distopian (sp?) as well.

It could become a more widely adopted practice with the Google tool, but it's nothing new really. Diigo's offered that feature plus some for two years plus? and that only extends to my familiarity with Diigo; it may be longer than that. -Chris My reaction was mixed.
