Michael Lyubomirskiy's website is www.michaelpundit.com. And this is my user page in Wikipedia.

I am now trying to start a campaign to incorporate a tool called TiggerScript (see http://www.michaelpundit.com/tech/TiggerScript.htm) into Wikipedia. TiggerScript is a Javascript app that allows the reader to instantly toggle between table of contents and the current position in the article. TiggerScript is incorporated into this article about it :) and into some other articles on my website.

Basically the way it works is, if you are down in the text, you can press 'A' (single key, without CTRL or anything) and the page jumps up to the table of contents. Once in table of contents, you can press 'S', and the page will jump back down to where you jumped up from. Precise scrolling location will be recorded and preserved in both places across jumps. So this way the table of contents is always just a keystroke away. Being able to examine it frequently helpts the reader to understand the context of what he is readingand generally increases speed and quality of reading comprehension. Says I :) but just read my articles at www.michaelpundit.com and see how it goes.

I believe that this user interface invention will significantly improve reading comprehension of webpages, including in Wikipedia, and hence deserves widespread adoption to make the web a more readable place. Incorporating TiggerScript into Wikipedia, as I explain in the article, is very simple if the Wikimedia technical people go along.

Please read the article, play around with TiggerScript, and consider supporting my campaign for making Wikipedia a more readable, structured, and UI sophisticated place with this neat hack. Michael Lyubomirskiy 02:18, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
