A jyte browser plugin could allow the creation of claims from highlighted text anywhere on the web, including metadata on the source.

For instance, if I'm reading a Fox News transcript and am too lazy to research the claim an anchor or guest makes, I could just highlight it, click my jyte button, and wait for the votes. This would require the attribution attribute, and maybe some protections against wholesale spam (like only established users, min. cred, etc). It's like embedding a claim, except the claimant doesn't know it.

- 52-3 A scrolling jyte claim ticker application would be a fabulous way to decimate one's productivity.
- 8-4 Claim # 1000 will appear inside of two minutes.
- 9-2 Embedded Jyte claims don't always survive the RSS or Atom conversion process.
- 46-1 A method for imbedding claims into prose (without a frame) would allow more seemless integration of claims into blogs.
- 15-4 It would be cool to have two-way embedding (i.e., claims that could tell you where they've been embedded).
