I use Diigo for annotating the internet and it has worked pretty well for me. As far as i know it doesn't do shapes but is great at sticky-notes/highlighting/bookmarking. I really like the ability to search through past mark-ups too. It's kinda like turning the internet into a huge book and being able to cross reference everything 1000x easier.

Hope it helps.

 HTML5 Annotations Widget?

AJ ONeal <cool...@gmail.com> Nov 27 05:08PM -0700  

I want a widget or bookmarklet that will allow me to draw shapes on a
webpage and take text notes (saved to localStorage and or remotely).
 
Know of anything?

I recommend you start with SVG for your shapes, then you can insert text
dynamically inside the SVG. Save the shape positions and text in your local
storage. -- Cole

In particular I'm looking for an existing solution.

Sorry about that. I would be very surprised if there was a generic solution
out there, as dynamic SVGs are pretty advanced. I did some searching, and
didn't find anything off the shelf. If I see something, I'll post it.
 
If there's nothing out there (likely). Do you have someone who can make an
SVG for you? If so, ask for an annotation bubble, with whatever text you
feel you'll need. The rest is javascript. This would be actual work, I
know, but hey. Good luck.
