Abstract

In a networked client/server system, media content as well as annotations corresponding to the media content can be transmitted from a server(s) to a client. A user interface is presented to the user to facilitate creating new annotations and viewing annotations. According to one embodiment, the client further assists the user in identifying a temporal range of the media content to which the new annotation is to correspond.
