Show HN: Review my project: MarkUp, a tool to draw on any webpage.

Here's the website: http://markup.io/

We created MarkUp at Medium to help make the QA process better for sites we're working on. Grab the MarkUp bookmarklet, go to some page in your browser, then click it to draw on the page. Publish to make a link you can share.

We've tried similar tools like BounceApp, Notable, and Skitch. Everything else we found is screenshot-based or takes us out of the browser. We wanted something that felt quicker than screenshots and more integrated with the browsing experience.

Instead of taking a screenshot, MarkUp snapshots the DOM in the current page, strips the javascript, and overlays a transparent DIV to draw on. We used Raphael for the drawing tools. The server-side is Node.js/Express.

What do you think? It's in beta and we'll be adding more features, but we wanted to start getting feedback now.

Thanks

nicely done! passing this on to my ui/uix friends right now.

Cool. That (drawing on an existing web page to mark it up) is the same use-case we had that led to building Twiddla. It's pretty much the same thing, but realtime & multi-user.

Good luck!

Definitely. IE7+ support is on the way.

Good idea. We can use this for design dev. Bookmarked.
