A SocialAnnotation is an annotation, shared by a community. There are several levels of socialness of annotations, depending on community and technology:

L0: At least one private annotation, made public, such that it is useful for a greater community.

L1: A L0 annotation with questions, leading to responding answers or questions in form of annotations.

L2: A L1 annotation, supported by one local WikiEngine of the annotation-service provider, that delivers CommunityWiki:LinkLanguage context.

L3: A L2 annotation, supported by external WikiEngines, that create automatic backlinks on their annotating pages to the annotation. (AnnotationMediator?)

Discussion:

Although DiiGo and WikAlong offer "social" annotation services, they mainly take advantage of properties below level 2.
If somebody can point to examples of higher annotation levels, please leave a link here.
So in the sense of friendly WebWeaving the author gives this page a social L1 annotation, hoping to stimulate higher levels.

This page is WikAlong'ed.
