Allegedly, one can use bookmarklet instead, but in Firefox it works only for some of websites.

Seems under development
Too many rough edges and/or bugs as you use it. For example, you have to keep logging in every time you want to add a page using the chrome extension. There are ways to add annotations on the mobile too, but way too buggy. Hopefully they fix these problems soon. Very good idea; poorly implemented.

Lets you see public & private annotations on that webpage
Helpful to see what people thought or see useful references they might have left. Useful for group collaborations as well (research groups, book clubs, class study groups, etc)

SplendidPepromene's Experience
Used this to put together a Promoted Pin and Pin Extension. It was easy to gather feedback from the platform partner, agency and client in one place, gathering feedback before markup was always screenshots and google docs, much prefer this process!

Nice and simple browser extension for adding visual bugs
With the extension you can add bugs to the tracker by clicking on the affected UI and bugherd creates a screenshot with your annotation describing the bug as well as browser information. It’s a low-friction way to add bugs with the right context.
