Cool. However, I feel that watching it, doesn't really give the full effect, requires tons of patience too. Couldn't the editing data be visualized in some data science illustration for a real insight into what it represents?
Maybe like the final draft, overlayed with a heatmap of how much editing was done, then on clicking, provide a tree like comment history of each branching edit. This could show the anatomy of how different people form thoughts in written word. T his is an insight we could learn much from at a massive scale. I would imagine Facebook or another hosted blogging platform could get this data with relative ease.

Everyone revises their work, many times over. But yes the great authors do as well. I think this tool is cool for that reason. “I have rewritten–often several times–every word I have ever written.

what happened to Stypi? their last blog entry is more than a year old (which usually is a sign of death/abandonment).
