Abstract
A request to navigate to a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) can be received within a cobrowsing session. The cobrowsing session can be associated with a unique session identifier of a cobrowsing application. The cobrowsing application can be part of a collaboration software. An annotation previously associated with the URI from a historic cobrowsing session can be retrieved. Content associated with the URI can be obtained and presented within an interface associated with the cobrowsing session. The annotation can be presented within the content associated with the URI of the interface.

18. An apparatus including an interface for persisting annotations within a cobrowsing session comprising:
-
a tangible memory storing at least one computer program product; a processor operable to execute the computer program product to cause the interface window to be displayed by the display hardware; and the computer program product when executed by the processor being operable to receive a request to navigate to a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) within a cobrowsing session, wherein the cobrowsing session is associated with a unique session identifier, wherein the cobrowsing session is associated with a cobrowsing application, wherein the cobrowsing application is a portion of a collaboration software; the computer program product when executed by the processor being operable to retrieve an annotation previously associated with the URI from a historic cobrowsing session; the computer program product when executed by the processor being operable to obtain content associated with the URI and present the obtained content within an interface associated with the cobrowsing session; and the computer program product when executed by the processor being operable to present the annotation within the content associated with the URI of the interface, wherein the annotation is presented proximate to a portion of the content associated with the URI. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
