3D Annotations interface: user study

Hey SketchUp community,

I've created a slightly different way to add annotations to 3D models. I prototyped the technique in OGRE 3D (screen attached). If any members of the SketchUp community would be interested in taking part in a short user study (~15 min or less) that compares the new technique to the method used in SketchUp, please let me know. I'll send you an email to the study's website.

After the study is complete, I will report my findings back to the community so maybe some slight changes could be made to the way SketchUp handles 3D annotations .

Thanks and just let me know if you have any questions.

EDIT: Hi again, I made the study publicly available now: http://www.cise.ufl.edu/~zezzell/annotations/study.php

I will be very appreciative to anyone who participates in the study and, in turn, helps narrow down a set of design principles for 3D annotations.
