I do this too and then I eventually leave the site in frustration. I can't even see which pages have annotations until I explicitly close the sidebar. :(

I left because it brought up some modal popup wanting me to sign up for some mailing list.

Annoy-ware isn't appreciated.

The mailing list is quite good, it's one paper every week, and nothing else.

white-flame wasn't talking about the frequency or content of the mailing list. The annoying bit is the modal popup. Modal popups are rude.
