Thanks for the feedback. It's interesting to see the pros and cons of using HyperLinky vs Annoty with custom links, but I would think that the average user does not want to maintain his/her own list of sites with links. That being said, its definitely nice to be able to have your own custom sites in there.
I do like the idea of real-time replacement and links getting updated as well. Those would be considered for a future version, but they do have pros and cons of their own. Thanks again!
