    = Suggestion =

    Allow Diigo to recognise the manageress/manager of a site.


    = Implementation =

    Following the Google approach:

    1. manager contacts Diigo claiming ownership/managership of a site

    2. Diigo asks the person to add a uniquely named file to the root of the site

    3. manager adds the file

    4. Diigo finds the file and recognises the site's owner/manager.


    = Purposes =

    A manager may wish to add highlights to a home page

    - I wish to do this, for the home pages of my groups' sites.

    A manager may wish to remove legacy graffiti from a home page.

    A manager of two sites, which have near-identical texts but dissimilar styles, may wish to *carefully* define (for Diigo users' annotations) a relationship/similarity between the two; see below.

    Et cetera.


    = Relevance to previous topics =

    > synonymous with another name

    > site manager-defined 'URL synonyms' (for want of a better expression)

    et cetera.

    More usefully, less destructively:

    * from a home page, a manager may wish to extract all annotations then

    - delete the floating sticky notes and others that have graffiti-like appearance

    - from the extracts: re-post valuables, in a more presentable form, either at the home page or (more likely) at pages that are more relevant to the annotation.

    Ah, juggling. I have months on, months off… :)
