The Guest Editors’ introduction to this special issue of NRHM on Social Linking and Hypermedia immediately follows. Additionally the issue contains a general Technical Note. Li, Wald, Wills, Khoja, Millard, Kajaba, Singh, and Gilbert (Synote: development of a web-based tool for synchronized annotations) present a freely available, Web-based media annotation system that makes use of AJAX techniques. Synote allows users to create annotations to any fragment of a continuous multimedia resource in most common browsers and operating systems. Notes, bookmarks, tags, links, images and text captions can be synchronised to the resource's timeline. Synote search results link directly to the specific time span of a video or audio resource.
Authors are welcome to submit papers relevant to the general scope of the NRHM at any time. NRHM submissions and reviewing are conducted via ScholarOne Manuscripts, the Taylor & Francis journal management system: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tham. We are interested in exploiting possibilities of the digital medium, and authors who wish to include a digital component are encouraged to contact the Editors with any questions.
We also welcome proposals for future Special Issue themes, which should be directed to the Editors.
The journal's website is http://www.tandfonline.com/nrhm. Online articles are available from the website in both PDF and HTML formats. The Introduction to an NRHM issue is available free, while articles can be viewed by subscribers or purchased individually.
