So I work for a tech company in Berlin called [deleted]. You can find us here: [deleted]. We're focussing on making reading social and shareable. What's your opinion on such a thing?
Andrew Keen recently said that 'social reading' signifies the end of the world, as we can't enjoy the solidarity that comes with it anymore. However, I view it as a fresh take on reading.
For more context on how 'social' is incorporated, take a look at [deleted].

Not a bad direction. If you're into the whole social networking thing (I'm not), I can see value in this. Notes in margins are curious things. When I find them in a second-hand book, they're usually cryptic--esoteric thoughts of the previous reader--but fun to try to decipher. They're distracting, but unless they pollute the whole book, they're not unwelcome.
I give this an official
for novel invention.
