Or is that &#8220;purplelink?&#8221;]]></title><type><![CDATA[link]]></type><html><![CDATA[<p>Doug Engelbart mentioned purple numbers last week during dinner and I was just reminded about that again so I went and did some research on what they are. I guess I missed that whole meme, which demonstrates yet again just how hard it is to get the world to change. We&#8217;re being thrown so much information it&#8217;s hard to hear every idea. Anyway, <a href="http://collab.blueoxen.net/forums/tools-yak/2004-02/msg00023.html">Eugene Kim&#8217;s blog has the details</a> and <a href="http://www.eekim.com/software/purple/purple.html">his site has more</a>. You can see <a href="http://www.bootstrap.org/">Doug&#8217;s Website with purple numbers here</a>.</p>
<p>I think they&#8217;d drive me nuts because I often add a paragraph after publishing, or edit things, but, realistically, that&#8217;s just a tool problem. Keeping these from breaking would be difficult. What do you think?</p>
