#13How do you deal with the screen resolution problem?
We capture the dimensions of the page when the toolbar loads. People viewing the MarkUp with different screen resolutions might see an "empty" background or need to scroll a bit.
Here's an example: http://markup.io/v/x9ybmz4e5k7r

#14This is pretty awesome, I might be using it a lot!

#15I like this a lot, and for quick notes it's easier than Notable. I like the implementation as a bookmarklet, but here are two big problems: 1) Starting MarkUp clears any info you've entered into a form on the page 2) There is no easy way to exit/cancel (how about trapping ESC or adding a little X?)
Thanks for the feedback! I've added (1) to our bug list. Others have asked for (2), so we'll definitely be adding that sometime soon.

#16Very nice work!
I'm seeing a bug in the drawing demo on the front page. I can draw the first line and it works as expected, but if I release the mouse and try to draw a second line it's not working correctly. It doesn't show the shape that I've drawn until I release the mouse and it connects the end of the first line to the start of the second.

#17This is awesome. We use diigo right now for tagging pages and sharing them but it is pretty weak. The ability to login & keep a history of your markups to share with others in your group would be tops.

#18Nice. Some ideas (that you probably already have): typable sticky notes; a library of icons/images to overlay; audio notes; have some gestures (double-click like an iOS double-tap?) auto-select containing DOM elements.

#19This is amazing the tool itself is intuitive and easy to use, but powerful. The only thing I would say needs a bit of work is your website. Declutter it, and make it more like dropbox.com, where the user has no other choice but to try it (rather than read about it).

#20Great work. Bookmarked it.
2 questions:
1) Is there a way to erase or reset the drawing in case i bungle it up?
2) It'd be brilliant if you could collaborate using the same URL. I sent a markup URL to someone who wanted to share his notes on my annotations and he hit respond, drew the appropriate stuff and hit publish only to find that there was a new link that had to be pushed to me for it to be seen. Again, I understand the concern of too many cooks spoil the broth but it's a usecase for a small team to collaborate on a page's UI without having to send a new link each time.
