In Diigo Meta: whilst we wait for the preview to load, the white space is wasted.
Criticism
In Diito Meta: the small area below the preview is far too small for reasonable treatment of public page comments, especially when that small space is (a) preceded by personal or group annotations and (b) polluted by orphaned sticky notes.
Positive suggestion
Whilst the preview is loading, present the page comments.
Maybe implemented as a collapsible/expandable sidebar. (Sidebar approach to comments certainly works for Google Sidewiki.)

Maybe as an opaque overlay.
Maybe fading over a period of a few seconds.
Keyword: sidebar, and the topic to which I'm drawn is http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/958302
That topic sidebar arrangements is rambling at the beginning but more focused later, up to and including Sean's point http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/958302#7
