I love highlighters

January 17th, 2006

Do you?

I am super protective of my books – I drive my husband crazy and no one wants to borrow my books anymore because there are rules :) But when I was in college I used to highlight passages like crazy!! I’d re-read blank pages just to find something worth highlighting – yes I’m a bit neurotic – but that’s not the point of this post.

I just learned about Wizlite – a Firefox extension that let’s you highlight a web page and share the highlighted page with others!!

Wizlite allows you to highlight text (like on real paper) on any page on the Internet and share it with everybody (or just your friends).

Do you have to research on a topic on the Internet collaboratively? By creating a group on Wizlite you can share pages with their selections among a small group of people.

Thanks Webosphere for pointing this out.

    I went to their \’sandbox\’ area on their homepage and it locked up my Firefox browser to the point where I had to manually stop the process via the task manager – twice. Be careful.
