y-notes is a simple system
which allows you to specify
spots in your web pages to
which your website's
visitors will be able to
stick
notes. For the the
web user, y-notes provide a
convenient way to add
annotations to a web site
without having to go into
the messy business of
managing a large set of
bookmarks. Also, the notes
are kept at the server so
that users can retrieve them
at a later time and use them
as a navigation aid. For the
site maintainer, y-notes
provides an easy and
automatic way of gathering
user feedback and improving
the site design. The main
component of y-notes is a
tiny Java(tm) applet. Notes
are stored on database
managed through a CGI
interface written in Perl.
