[annotator-dev] Trouble setting up local storage

[Gareth Highnam]

This time it gave 200 and gave me some JSON about my existing entries,
which are a bunch data like so:

{"_id":"54fdf51f18eb23d57f4a8ca6","quote":"are two solut","uri":"
http://localhost.com/inline/anno.html
","__v":0,"permissions":[],"tags":[],"ranges":[{"start":"/p[2]","startOffset":22,"end":"/p[2]","endOffset":36,"_id":"54fdf51f18eb23d57f4a8ca7"}],"text":"adsf","updated":"2015-03-09T19:31:43.016Z","created":"2015-03-09T19:31:43.016Z","id":"54fde1dbf7d884cc7862b346"},09T21:57:53.240Z","id":"54fde1dbf7d884cc7862b346"}]

I'm not really sure if these posts are created correctly in first place,
which could be a big issue but there are no explicit errors from Annotator
about it.

Thanks,
Gareth
