I saw a couple of articles (here and here) in my RSS feed tonight about a new Google project called Google Sidewiki.
The project looks to be along the lines of other web annotation services like Diigo and Trailfire but is incorporated into the Google Toolbar. Perhaps that is the problem...I personally despise all these toolbar browser add-ons. It doesn't matter if it's Google, Yahoo, or heaven forbid Hotbar toolbars - they all take up precious screen real estate without enhancing the web surfing experience. Maybe I'm just thinking of the toolbars of the 1990s that caused your Windows machine to slow to a snail's pace. No matter, Google you can keep your sidewiki, I'll stick to Diigo.

I tend to agree, the biggest turn off to any web page is unnecessary clutter. When I can barely find the content because of all the add-ons...that is a problem! I would really have to be impressed with what the side wiki makes possible for me to give up precious screen space.
