Hi, 
I was thinking of trying the following and wanted to see if anyone else had already done it: 
1. Publish Google chart
2. User clicks on chart, coordinates are saved as event
3. User enters comment in dialog box
4. Comment string and coordinates are pushed into chart data table array
5. User annotation now appears on chart. 

All feedback appreciated.

Interesting idea, but any such annotations would have to be submitted back to a server, such as the Google spreadsheets server, in order that they would show up for other users. Annotations by a user might be stored on that user's local machine, so they could see them next time the chart is displayed, but no one else would see them.

Thanks for this feedback Dan. I would definitely want annotations to be seen by the community of users (with login controls). It would be great to see a proof of concept on jsfiddle if anyone has time to try it.
