We describe the design and implementation of a multimedia Web annotation system that enables users to add information to multimedia contents obtained through the World Wide Web. We have developed a highly modular annotation server that stores users' annotations and embeds them into multiple types of contents including plain text, HTML documents and MPEG video. This system also provides a mechanism for sharing the annotations among multiple users using the same server.
