copy a page to share with a colleague with my added highlight emphasis

FYI,
The claim from Hadi Partovi of iLike is not accurate.
ReverbNation has been providing free web-based content management tools for musicians since 2006. Hundreds of thousands of Artists use our tools to deploy and manage show schedules, music players, blogs, web buzz, photos, videos, and 'fan collectors' across all social sites, blogs, and their homepages. We provide Artist's with comprehensive tracking and analytics, as well as real-time updating, all from a dashboard.
Don't get me wrong, I think that the "iLike/Ticketmaster/Garageband" company makes some great applications. But they should do a little more fact checking before making claims that are patently untrue.
As for this announcement from Google, we are as excited as you are. The concept of a universal 'friend' widget has been kicked around and even attempted in the past, with little success. No doubt, this attempt will yield better results.
Thanks for the great reporting, as usual.
