Campus Technology: In the early 1990s, the creators of Netscape apparently built a function that enabled each web page to be annotated by those visiting it, as a way for viewers to discuss the page's content. But according to a video produced in 2013 by a nonprofit called Hypothesis, the feature was turned off.
Now that same nonprofit is working to bring that functionality back by offering an app that allows for "open annotation." As it's described, this is a "layer over the web," based on open standards, that allows people to comment even when and where comments aren't allowed.
