Here is a screen shot of what one of my blog entries looks like normally when you first look at it:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/originalblogentry1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-207\" title=\"Original Web Page\" src=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/originalblogentry1-400x349.jpg\" alt=\"Original Web Page\" width=\"400\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/originalblogentry1-400x349.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/originalblogentry1.jpeg 849w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So you go to awesomehighlighter.com and put in the URL that you want to highlight, it takes you there, but it gives you a set of tools, like a highlighter that has color choices, and sticky notes.  You highlight and add sticky notes and then click Done.  Then it gives you a tiny URL that you can visit and share, and the highlighted version of the web page is there at that tiny URL.  Here&#8217;s what the above blog entry looked like at the tiny URL after I highlighted a few words and added a couple sticky notes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/highlightedblogentry.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-208\" title=\"Highlighted Blog Entry\" src=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/highlightedblogentry-400x348.jpg\" alt=\"Highlighted Blog Entry\" width=\"400\" height=\"348\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/highlightedblogentry-400x348.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.leucht.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/highlightedblogentry.jpeg 849w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Pretty cool, huh?  I could see how this could come in handy every once in a while when you&#8217;re trying to show someone something, but you&#8217;re not right there face to face to point to it and you&#8217;re not necessarily in a position to do desktop sharing or something like that.
