Paragraphr is an experiment to make a new kind of reading and writing experiences using the Internet. We believe the Internet can give rise to models of writing 2.0, reading 2.0, or book 2.0. We are trying to make one.
With Paragraphr, writers can gradually build a book. You can edit paragraph by paragraph, and can move paragraphs around.
Readers can comment under each paragraph, adding dialogue with writers and other readers to the traditional reading experiences.
