Fragmentions: linking to words in a page

What if instead we combined these two ideas:

  • use a fragment to identify part of a page
  • mention words in the page as the identifier

I’ve named these “fragmentions”

To tell these apart from an id link, I suggest using a double hash — ## for the fragment, and then words that identify the text. For example:

http://epeus.blogspot.com/2003_02_01_archive.html##annotate+the+web

means “go to that page and find the words ‘annotate the web’ and scroll to show them”
