Diigo

Via the Neuronerd 

Diigo is a social annotation service that turns the web writable allowing users to privately or publicly annotate any website they visit, thereby making a “participatory and interactive media” for its users. When you highlight a word on any page a drop down menu automatically appears (see image below) that lets you:

  • search for the highlighted words on the web with any of four search engines
  • search for highlighted terms in four social bookmarking systems
  • do a blog search for highlighted terms
  • search for your terms in the entire site you are on (Google, Yahoo, Ask site: search)
  • search for inbound links to the URL you are on in four different search engines (including Technorati and Google)
  • search for your highlighted terms in seven different verticals from local to TV to stocks.
