Tool to highlight and annotate text on websites?
This isn't a coding question per se however it relates to it. I apologise if it this in the incorrect place as I wasn't quite sure where else to post it.
I am new to the world of coding and as I leap from one web page to another learning about PHP, XHTML, etc and I often find parts of an article , forum, etc interesting. I currently bookmark the pages I like however what I would really like to be able to do is highlight the part that interests me and save it so that when I return to the page again, all I have to do is look for the highlighted part or parts. Does anyone know of such a addon or extension I can use with my browser?
EDIT
Be great if the tool integrated with Google Bookmarks or Firefox Synchronization
Not that I'm aware of, but you've definitely given me and potentially a few other coders a great idea! – None – 2011-05-05T20:41:46.687
What you're looking for is called web annotation.

– ChristopheD – 2011-05-05T20:44:26.053@Paul Zaczkowski - I am full of ideas. One of the many reasons I am picking up coding. Be great to work with a team of developers/coders on any number of ideas I am continually coming up with :-) – None – 2011-05-05T20:44:28.913
@CanSpice - Thanks. Do you know of any existing tools I can use? – None – 2011-05-05T20:45:07.230
@ChristopheD - Thanks. I had a look at that but it is extremely slow and doesn't integrate with say my Google bookmarks or Firefox synchronization – None – 2011-05-05T20:46:20.300
It's not a browser extension, and is not free, but
Microsoft OneNote
is excellent for this. I have not tried it, but it could be worth checking ifEverNote
can automatically tag URLs to pasted notes as well. – paradroid – 2011-05-05T21:19:54.880@paradroid - Thanks. Might have a look at One/Ever Note. @Mehper C. Palavuzlar - It is similar and thanks for pointing it out. Will go through it. – PeanutsMonkey – 2011-05-05T22:36:06.617
