Multimedia has become technically easier to create (e.g. recording lectures) but while users can easily bookmark, search, link to, or tag (i.e. classify) the WHOLE of a podcast or video recording available on the web they cannot easily find, or associate their notes or resources with, PART of that recording. This paper discusses how to meet the important and pervasive user need of making multimedia web resources (e.g. podcasts) easier to access, search, manage, and exploit for learners, teachers and other users through developing technologies that support the creation of synchronised notes, bookmarks, tags, links, images and text captions
