Abstract
Annotating web content, in one aspect, may include detecting a request to navigate to a web site for content on a web browser. A component such as a web browser plugin, extension or the like transmits a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with the web site to a computer-implemented service that stores annotations to the content separate from the web site that is providing the content, and receives from the computer-implemented service one or more annotations to the content. The web browser plugin or the like renders the one or more annotations within the content from the web site. The content rendered with the annotations may be displayed within a display window of the web browser.
