Creating links with Ink

Sumocat has an interesting post on creating links with ink. Sure, this will come in very handy when UMPC becomes popular and people want to use the pen to blog. (atleast until wee se those sleek foldable UMPCs with built-in keyboards).

However, this method isn’t very useful since it lacks a good way to highlight a link, as with underlining text. Thus, I’ve come up with something new.

Instead of a map, I’ve decided to go with layers. After tooling with the code, I boiled down a template that links to an external script and style sheet. All I have to do is fill in the link info.

I upload the resultant web page and ink images to my web site. Then in Blogger, I paste in the code for the inline frame followed by the text. Takes a few more steps than my usual process, but it’s nice to have the option available.
