[okfn-dev] Annotator update.

Mon Feb 28 21:58:07 UTC 2011

Wow, very awesome!

It would be cool if annotateit.org provided an API to a user's annotations
so they could be extracted /displayed /integrated into other sites (eg. a
user's open lab book, for example ). Any plans along those lines?

flexible. Also the UI of the annotator has been updated to make it a little
nicer to use and to accommodate plugins adding additional fields.

when it's injected into some sites. There’s also now a sparse [wiki](
https://github.com/okfn/annotator/wiki) up on the GitHub page for
documentation for users and plugin developers. So we’ll be adding to that
too.
