To help debug your particular situation(s) please, could you post details to a separate topic? Thanks. We'll need to know things like:
* your operating system, and version * your browser, and version * whether you used Diigolet * whether you used an installed version of Diigo * if an installed version, the version number * if an installed version, and if you used more than one computer, whether you preferred privacy as your default in each and every one of the installations * etc.
Personal will be misleading to some users.

3. for any bookmark, click All annotations or Expand.
It's all there, with our names all over it. The personal and the public stuff (but nothing private), all together. Plain as day, to the public.
It's all blended, all obvious. Why bother to describe a fraction of that stuff as personal?
Suggestion
Just name these things annotations, comments, highlights, whatever.
Adding personal to the names is misleading, and ultimately unnecessary.

At http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/9588#10 (not the clearest of topics, sorry) I suggest that the user should be allowed to prefer private as a default for new bookmarks.
