Summary:
The paper introduce the fluid interface that encourage users to engage in active note taking. InkSeine is a Tablet PC application that supports active note taking by coupling a pen-and-ink interface with an in situ search facility that flows directly from a user’s ink notes InkSeine integrates four key concepts: it leverages preexisting ink to initiate a search; it provides tight coupling of search queries with application content; it persists search queries as first class objects that can be commingled with ink notes; and it enables a quick and flexible workflow where the user may freely interleave inking, searching, and gathering content. InkSeine offers these capabilities in an interface that is tailored to the unique demands of pen input, and that maintains the primacy of inking above all other tasks.The author also do the user studies so that maximize usability and focus on potential user scenarios.


Discussion:
Seems good,but I am not sure that I like the system. I guess that the system might not have fast speed.
