Awesome Highlighter: Highlight web text before sharing URLs

Awesome Highlighter
When you send a URL to a friend, it's probably a good idea to include a note letting them know why you sent it.

All you have to do is enter the URL of the page you want to highlight, and then select the text to highlight in yellow. When you're finished, just click the "Done" button in the Awesome Highlighter toolbar and the page will be saved to your account (if you haven't registered for an account pages will still be saved, but you won't be able to see them if you visit the site with another browser). You can also share links to highlighted pages with others using a TinyURL style shortened URL.
