Developed by HyperStudio, the new online tool improves on traditional techniques for entering marginalia and side notes in books — enabling readers to annotate texts across media, to share comments with others, and to enhance them with links, images, video, and audio.

Story 

"Annotating works digitally gives students so much more control over their work and so much more connection to the text. It relieves them of their inhibitions about writing. I get much better writing when they use digital annotation."
