A system and method of manipulating notes linked to Web pages, and of
manipulating the Web pages. These Web pages (or portions of Web pages) can
be stored at a Web site or in a local file system. The method of linking
notes to Web pages operates by enabling a user to select a portion of a
Web page, creating a annotation, linking the annotation to the selected
portion, receiving a request from a user viewing the annotation to display
the selected portion linked to the annotation, and invoking an
application, if the application is not already invoked, and for causing
the application to load the Web page and present the selected portion.
