Well, I figured out how to do hyperlinks in ink via imagemaps, but hooboy is it tedious. Write in OneNote, copy and paste into ImageReady, define image maps, save as html and gif, upload gif, open html in Emacs, copy and paste into WordPress, copy recognized text into WordPress, clean it up, create the same damn hyperlinks for the text version, publish.
Hopefully OneNote 2007 will have more seamless blogging. I played with Windows Live Writer with the ink blogging plugin, but I’d rather do it all in OneNote if possible. Seems like it would be a natural application if OneNote allowed ink hyperlinks.

I ran into the same frustration when adding Links in Ink to my ink blog entries so I made a custom tool to integrate inked images, text and links. If you’re a JavaScript & HTML coder, you’re welcome to give it a look and customize it for your needs. Also requires some script added to the blog template because I do color-shifting rollover links in addition to image maps.

Enter URLs in the numbered boxes, tap elsewhere, then drag and resize the yellow rectangles to place the links.

Thanks Sumocat. I saw your blog a month or so ago and liked what you did but was never able to track down your tool. Thanks a bunch for the link.
