Too few people realise the worth of Diigo. Hence my pleas for refinement http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/annotated-urls-annotated-links-may-allow-public-anonymous-views-of-some-not-all-private-annotations-7168#3 and wider availability http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/diigolet-get-annotated-link-7124 of the 'Get Annotated Link' feature - excellent for displaying Diigo features to non-users.
